something stupid that's driving me insane

[rm]

A friend sent me a CD that has on it Holst's Jupiter. I know I know this piece of music from somewhere, but I can't figure it out. The liner notes mention that it was in an Aussie TV commercial, but I'm fairly sure I've not seen that (I can't be entirely sure, because my dad's in advertising, and watching tapes and programs of international TV commercials is something I've been doing my entire life).

My brain seems to be telling me it was actually used in the score of an American western at some point.

Yes, no, maybe?

One of you has to know, before this drives me entirely batty.

It gets used as temp scoring for trailers- although not nearly as often as the Mars section- and it was excerpted in the score for The Right Stuff, as well as being adapted in a section of James Horner's score for Braveheart. Dunno about the Western, though.

Also, the American Cinematographer Moulin Rouge issue awaits you on your return.n
