Bernard Herrmann - Vertigo:Suite/I. Prelude (accompanies Vertigo’s title sequence)

(From Bernard Herrmann:The Film Scores, Conductor: Esa-Pekka Salonen, Orchestra: Los Angeles Philharmonic)

Herrmann, of course, is most closely associated with Hitchcock’s films, although he also worked with many other directors, including Orson Welles & Martin Scorcese. Of Vertigo, he said: “The story was so original, so haunting, that I knew pretty much what was called for, and I dredged it from my subconscious. As I scored it throughout, I found myself entirely in sympathy with what was going on the screen, and it is good to know that what I did musically with it is admired by so many.”
