In June 2021, for TALKING SOUNDTRACKS, Jason Drury talked to the four-time Emmy nominated journalist, writer, and producer of over 200 documentaries about music and cinema, Steven C Smith, about his book MUSIC BY MAX STEINER: THE EPIC LIFE OF HOLLYWOOD’S MOST INFLUENTIAL COMPOSER.

In May 2022, Jason had the opportunity to talk to Steven again about his first book, published in 1991, about another pioneering and influential composer in the history of film music, A Heart at Fire's Center: The Life and Music of Bernard Herrmann.

Part one of their interview concerned Herrmann’s radio career, his collaborations with Orson Welles leading to the beginning of his film music career with Citizen Kane.

In Part 2, they discuss the composer’s career up to his premature death in 1975, and feature the most important partnership in his career, with director Alfred Hitchcock. You’ll also hear more of Herrmann’s great music from original recordings and re-recordings.

Enjoy.
