Bernard Herrmann is widely regarded as one of Hollywood's most important composers, responsible for more than fifty film scores (in addition to his work for TV, radio, and the concert hall), and noted for his collaborations with Orson Welles and, later, with Alfred Hitchcock. Welles was unofficially involved with Robert Stevenson's film of Jane Eyre in the 1940s, and it was Welles that suggested Herrmann as composer for the project. Herrmann became obsessed with all things Brontë, and within months was writing to friends of his plans to write an opera on Wuthering Heights. It took him eight years to complete the vocal score, using a libretto written by his wife, Lucille Fletcher. Although he conducted a recording of the work, in 1966, he failed to see a live production in his lifetime. Although the opera features eight solo roles, Cathy and Heathcliff dominate the action and are the only singers in Hans Sorensen's Suite of excerpts - recorded here for the very first time. Keri Fuge and Roderick Williams take the vocal roles in this recording. Echoes was composed in 1965 for string quartet, and was later arranged for string orchestra by Hans Sorensen - the version heard on this album. The recording was made in the Esplanade Concert Hall, Singapore. In Surround Sound, and is available as a Hybrid SACD and in Spatial Audio.

Magazines arrived in perfect condition and quickly!
After reading one in the airport, I ordered 3 more issues for sharing. So many women and teachers wanted to keep them that I ordered a bunch more. Super insightful and informative. Also - almost every page written by women.
If looking for Earlier Raw Adventures Look for Clean Natural Movies with Steve Reeves.
Great album! Thank you so much for the excellent CD.
