John Addison's score matches the epic, tragic scope of the movie; this remastered reissue of the soundtrack captures Addison's musical vision in all its doomed glory.
Silva Screen Records present earlier composers who were masters of music on Hitchcock films, and later films with Bernard Herrmann on the second CD. The "CONCERTO FOR ORCHESTRA" is Miklos Rozsa's haunting theme which lasts over nine minutes is something from heaven. "STRANGERS ON THE TRAIN" the Dimitri Tiomkin contribution is also an outstanding track which can move the unmoveable with the heart-racing pounding sounds that the two composers generate. Both composers Rozsa and Tiomkin have a list of accomplishments a mile long, but to hear their music on a Hitchcock film is pure geneious in film making and scoring.

Leonard Bernstein was not a specialist in Baroque music, but he approached the composer's famous "Messiah" during his performing career, among other works. With the New York Philharmonic, in December 1956 Bernstein led his own, abridged version of Messiah with movements reordered into two parts rather than three. Later as music director he led "The Passion according to St.John", the "Ode for St. Cecilia's Day", and various solo concertos and concerti grossi.

Bernstein recorded his version of "Messiah" in late 1956 and the "Ode for St.Secilia's Day following those performances with the NYP.
