    About this event:
    Works by a pair of legendary motion picture composers, Bernard Herrmann and Nino Rota, both born 100 years ago, will be performed by Steve Heliotes, piano, and Linden Christ, soprano. Herrmann (1911-1975), an American, collaborated most famously with film director Alfred Hitchcock on ‘Psycho,’ ‘North By Northwest,’ ‘The Man Who Knew Too Much,’ and ‘Vertigo.’ Nina Rota (1911-1979), an Italian, was best-known for his scores to films by directors Federico Fellini and Luchino Visconti, as well as the first two movies of Francis Ford Coppola’s ‘Godfather’ trilogy. Selections from ‘La Strada’ & ‘La Dolce Vita’ will be performed by Steve Heliotes and Linden Christ.
