Bernard Herrmann Society
An international society for the appreciation of the music of Bernard Herrmann (1911-1975) was founded on 29 June 2000 - the 89th anniversary of Herrmann's birth. The society's aims are to widen the appreciation and knowledge of the life and music of Bernard Herrmann on an international level, to encourage the performance and recording of Herrmann's music - particularly the lesser known works, with an emphasis on the classical concert hall repertoire, to aid the research on all aspects of Herrmann's unique career as composer, conductor and champion of under-appreciated music, and other achievements, and to serve as a modern forum of communication for all who share an interest in the life and music of Bernard Herrmann. Norma Herrmann is honorary president, Günther Kögebehn and Kurt George Gjerde are founders and directors, Marc Allen is associate director and Bob Kosovsky and Bill Wrobel are researchers.
