Q uo Vadis was composer Miklós Rózsa’s first biblical epic film. In 1951, the man whose name would come to be so inextricably associated with togas, swords, crosses and such, had never scored any film set more than 200 years in the past (not counting the Arabian Nights fantasy The Thief of Bagdad ).

44. Nero’s Suicide/Galba’s March/Finale
1. This alternate version of the concluding music uses a short insert (the last portion of “Nero’s Suicide,” recorded in Culver City on August 15, 1951) and eliminates the “mystic chords” just prior to the choral entry. — Frank K. DeWald
Abstract. From the start, MGM was determined to make the spectacular religious epic Quo Vadis as historically accurate as possible. The music was also to be as accurate as the rest of the film, and Miklós Rózsa’s score for Quo Vadis was an important early example of (and influence on) the “epic film score sound.”.
