From that moment on, whenever Bernard Herrmann's name came on the screen of one of my many favorite films, I knew that I was in for something extra....something special. And, from that moment on, I became what we all know as a "Film Music Nerd"

In other words, one of those strange people who not only noticed film music at all, but cared about it, talked about it, argued strenuously about it, and occasionally was ready to take off my jacket and fight over it.

I am not ashamed of being a "Film Music Nerd". So when I say that Gramophone's Film Music Guide is designed for "nerds" I am speaking with pride of myself and people like me."
