Eileen Farrell sings Bernard Herrmann's "Ah, cruelle" from Salammbo

In fact, the "new recording" is in fantastic analogue ( not digital) sound from 1974...Try to get the original LP, it still sounds the best. ;-)

This is very good, and a fine interpretation of the opus from "Salammbo" in CITIZEN KANE (RKO, 1941) by Bernard Herrmann, but I do actually prefer the newer version, in digital stereo, by Kiri Te Kanawa.

Wow, my favorite film score composer, and one of my all-time favorite singers. I'd quite forgotten she sang so much outside of the normal repertoire.  Thanks, kadoguy2006!

'Benny' conducted this performance; he told me so in 1974, during which time I was preparing the recording of the soundtrack from 'Sisters'.
