A strange image of the universe drawn by a master artist.
This recording features film music master Bernard Herrmann conducting the London Philharmonic, and is a unique masterpiece that made a huge impact on the classical music world.
Bernard Herrmann, known for his scores to Hitchcock films, is an ambitious composer who injects his unique dramatic sensibility into classic classical pieces. From the opening "Mars," the score marches forward at a solemn tempo that sets it apart from typical performances, creating a cold, ominous tension. The grand scale of "Jupiter" and the mysterious fade-out of the final piece, "Neptune," fully demonstrate his outstanding compositional skills as a film composer.
