Bernard Herrmann is considered one of Hollywood’s most important composers, creating more than 50 film scores, and is especially known for his congenial collaborations with Orson Welles and later Alfred Hitchcock. But Herrmann also created regular classical works: presented here for the first time is Hans Sorensen’s Suite with excerpts from Herrmann’s opera Wuthering Heights. Echoes, also presented here, was composed in 1965 for string quartet and later arranged by Sorensen for string orchestra – the version heard on this album.
