I'm glad to announce another new episode of my podcast! In this episode, I talk about and present examples of the music of Bernard Herrmann, a legendary, enigmatic and trend-setting figure in film scores, specifically as the Golden Age of Hollywood began to wane and transition into broader styles and textures. I titled this "Listening To..." and plan to revisit this topic with various composers, whether to present attributes of their overall style or focus on particular genres or even a certain year of their career. This is not a comprehensive biography of the man or his entire career, but more of a brief introduction for anyone who might be curious to learn about what to listen for.
As before, I do hope everyone who listens enjoys this episode and forgives any
technical and verbal gaffes I might make. This is my first episode on my own. Below is the embedded player
from which you can listen to the episode, but also feel free to download
the episode from iTunes (search their podcast store for "a score to
settle"), check out the link from the Facebook page or click on the
website link below the player, which should take you directly to where
the episode is being hosted. If you do listen via iTunes, take a moment to rate the podcast, it will help bring notice. Thanks again!
