This movie credits list Sir Adrian Boult as the conductor. According to the liner notes on the Varese Sarabande (VSD 5263) release of the original soundtrack, composer Maurice Jarre conducted every note of this recording with the London Philharmonic Orchestra. According to "Beyond the Epic: The Life and Films of David Lean" by Gene Phillips, Boult found conducting a movie score so overwhelming that he handed the job over to Jarre. Boult's name was still listed for contractual reasons, apparently because he was the chief conductor of the Philharmonic at that time.
