The Story
Dragon's Domain Records presents THE INQUIRER - THE FILM MUSIC OF BERNARD HERRMANN, featuring music composed by Bernard Herrmann
Dragon's Domain Records presents THE INQUIRER - THE FILM MUSIC OF BERNARD HERRMANN, featuring music composed by Bernard Herrmann and including music from the films CITIZEN KANE, THE MAGNIFICENT AMBERSONS, THE DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL, THE KENTUCKIAN, THE NIGHT DIGGER, SISTERS, BATTLE OF NERETVA and more.
THE INQUIRER - THE FILM MUSIC OF BERNARD HERRMANN consists of new recordings (from the late 1980s and early 1990s) performed by the Australian Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Tony Bremner, the National Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Fred Steiner, in addition to the original soundtrack recordings performed by the Sessions Of London Orchestra, conducted by the composer, the London Studio Orchestra, conducted by the composer and the London Philharmonic Orchestra, also conducted by the composer.
Bernard Herrmann is one of the greatest composers of motion picture music in the twentieth century. He is considered the man behind some of the most original and distinctive film scores. He was a master at evoking psychological and dramatic tension in his music to suit the dramatic needs of a film. He won his only Oscar in 1947 for writing the score for THE DEVIL AND DANIEL WEBSTER. Herrmann made a powerful mark in radio and in 1934 he began a 25-year career as a conductor and composer in radio, working for the CBS. In 1938, he scored the infamous presentation of Orson Welles' Halloween production of H. G. Wells' THE WAR OF THE WORLDS broadcast. He is best remembered for his collaborations with some of Hollywood's most celebrated film directors like Alfred Hitchcock, Orson Welles, Martin Scorsese and Brian DePalma. Described as a perfectionist, he believed that most directors didn't have a clue about music so he would blithely ignore their instructions.
