The Movie Music Of Bernard Herrmann - Bernard Herrmann’s first assignment as a film composer was as big as they get "Citizen Kane." He went on to write music for some of the great films to come, including Alfred Hitchcock’s "Vertigo," "North By Northwest," "Psycho," "The Birds," and "Marnie." He provided the music for "Journey to the Center of the Earth," "The Day the Earth Stood Still," "The Seven Voyages of Sinbad," and "Fahrenheit 451." He wrote for directors Brian de Palma and Martin Scorsese, in addition to providing music for many of radio’s outstanding productions. Author and composer Raymond Benson takes us through Herrmann’s career and provides excerpts from the music that made him one of the most sought-after composers in Hollywood.
