Sound and Vision

Academy Award-winning composer Bernard Herrmann collaborated with Alfred Hitchcock for almost a decade, helping create some of the director’s most memorable films. This series presents six films in which Herrmann was given creative control to develop the sound for Hitchcock’s vision. The work stands today as artifacts of one of Hollywood’s most successful composer-director relationships. Before meeting Hitchcock, Herrmann worked on the first two films of the young Orson Welles.
