レビュー (Amazon)
This much-anticipated follow up to Joel McNeely's award-winning disc of Bernard Herrmann's Vertigo (also available on Varese Sarabande) is yet another landmark in recorded film music. From the opening stabbing chords in the double basses to the unresolved sotto voce suspensions, Herrmann's music for Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho (1960) is one of the most justifiably famous scores in the literature. In order to complement John Russell's stark cinematography, Herrmann elected to create a monochromatic, "black and white" score for strings only. His strident, contrapuntal "Prelude" is the perfect embodiment of nervous energy and paranoia. After this tense opening Herrmann directs the listener into a false sense of security via languid, quasi-lyrical compositions such as "The City" and "Marion And Sam". The composer revives the previous tension through the deployment of Marion's guilt motif ("Temptation"), but the score's shocking coalescence of psychology and horror reaches its apotheosis in the notorious shower scene, scored by Herrmann with extreme high-range violin glissandos ("The Murder"). Though the music is undeniably chilling, there is also an underlying beauty that informs this material. Conductor McNeely recreates the nuances and tempos with unflinching precision, offering a reading that surpasses every previous recording of this complex masterwork. --Kevin Mulhall
