Jerry Goldsmith will conduct the Real Orquesta Sinfonica de Sevilla (Spain) on November 4th in a concert tributing Bernard Herrmann. The concert is part of the “Encuentros internacionales de musica de cine” festival and the recently altered program includes music from The Man Who Knew Too Much, Jane Eyre, Mysterious Island, Citizen Kane, The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad, The Trouble with Harry, Vertigo, North by Northwest, Marnie and Torn Curtain. On the 7th, Goldsmith will conduct the same orchestra in a concert of his own music.
On November 9th-11th the concerts will be followed by a seminar on Herrmann, focusing on his music for Welles and Hitchcock films. Among those attending will be Royal S. Brown.
