Bernard Herrmann
The film music of Bernard Herrmann is certainly as good a subject as any for the lavish "Phase 4" stereo treatment, which in the '60s was what the marketing strategy was all about for this particular release. The increased level of respect and interest in film composers amongst the listening public was still a few decades away when this album came ...

Bernard Herrmann
Listening to any of legendary composer Bernard Herrmann's 48 film scores immediately presents the listener with the difficult task of deciphering the era from which it has been extracted. Herrmann managed to completely avoid the trappings of the pop culture compass throughout his four decades in the business, building a library of music that could ...

Erich Kunzel
A campier beginning could not be conceived for this album of horror music than the one Telarc cooked up for Erich Kunzel & the Cincinnati Pops -- an opening sequence of thunder and frightened running in ear-splitting digital sound, followed by the hilarious haunted-house blast of an organ from The Phantom of the Opera. Yes, this is your worst ...

It might be possible to dispute the final running time of this set (two of the discs run under an hour) and it might even be possible to dispute the selections. However, it would not be worth the effort or the time -- Cinema Century runs almost four hours as it is, covering 58 themes and suites. The orchestras involved include Silva Screen ...

Paul Bateman & the City of Prague Philharmonic
This compilation of over an hour of Bernard Herrmann's film music is a handy way for novices to discover what they might like about his work, but it also won't offend veteran listeners, except perhaps in a couple of too predictable choices.
