Product Description:
Herrmann's collaboration with Hitchcock spanned eleven years and nine films, and his film score for Vertigo is widely recognized as being one of his finest. This in-depth musicological and critical study examines how Bernard Herrmann's score for Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo plays a crucial role in the articulation and development of the film's narrative and how it affects readings of the film. It considers the development of Herrmann's career up to 1958 and provides a detailed discussion of his musical style. It also examines the context of the film's production; its reception and critical readings are examined.
