Jerry Goldsmith

Evening Music | May 6, 2010
Jerry Goldsmith's modernist sensibility and enormous mastery of music history and structure contributed to the wide variety of moods evoked in his film and television scores (over 200 of them!). We hear music from "Under Fire" and "Twilight Zone," as well as his cantata "Christus Apollo," which has a text by science fiction author Ray Bradbury. Pinchas Zukerman's viola portrays Byron's Childe Harold with fire and flair, joining the Montreal Symphony Orchestra under Charles Dutoit to bring us Berlioz’s "Harold in Italy."
