Title: AT THE TOP OF THE ART OF FILM SCORING
Review: Can one deny that Bernard Herrmann's score to "Psycho" belongs in the top five of all-time great film scores? I think not.Joel McNeely and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra have performed the score masterfully with every thrilling, as well as subtle, chord.Purists may "scoff" that this rendition differs from the one conducted by Herrmann in the film, and to them I say "So what?"This is merely one ensemble's interpretation of the work of a master as seen and played through the eyes of composer/arranger McNeely.In other words, it's worth the money to buy and savor one's purchase!
