Music Composed by Bernard Herrmann Conducted by Bernard Herrmann, Alfred Newman and Lionel Newman. To say that the 1951 film The Day the Earth Stood Still is a benchmark of its genre is an understatement.

Bernard Herrmann is rightly regarded as one of the most important composers for film in the 20th century. His work has become synonymous with certain types of movie. Indeed his scores are often so tightly bound with their films that it's almost impossible to think of one without the other. The most obvious is his score for Alfred Hitchcock's 'Psycho'. His screeching violin score for the shower scene is not only a vital component but a motif recognised in it's own right the world over. The music for "The Day the Earth Stood Still" shows Bernard Herrmann at his most innovative. The transfer is excellent and I thought the booklet notes were very good at explaining what Herrmann was after in writing this music. The stills from the movie were well chosen.

The Day the Earth Stood Still. Herrmann's scores are not only supremely effective as soundtracks, but extremely evocative and even deeply moving as pieces of music, and listening to the scores for Vertigo or Citizen Kane is as involving and exciting as listening to the Four Seasons or the 1812 Overture. But in most cases, Herrmann's scores are either recorded only in parts or unrecorded altogether, and it was not until Varese Sarabande began its Herrmann series that many of his complete scores could be heard

Bernard Herrmann (born Max Herman; June 29, 1911 – December 24, 1975) was an American composer best known for his work in composing for motion pictures. As a conductor, he championed the music of lesser-known composers.
