DESCRIPTION:
In 1974 Bernard Herrmann arranged a suite from the film score he composed for director Henry Levin's JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH (1959) which was based on the Jules Verne novel. He recorded the suite in London conducting the National Philharmonic Orchestra. The suite was the first of four suites on the London Phase 4 album THE FANTASY FILM WORLD OF BERNARD HERRMANN. The suite contains the cues "Mountain Top and Sunrise", "Prelude", "The Grotto", "Salt Slide", "Atlantis", "The Giant Chameleon and the Fight", "The Shaft and Finale".

The artwork for the cover of the LP is the work of artist Richard Kriegler.
