About the event
Event Overview From October 30 to November 1, 2025, step into the suspense-filled world of Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho at Wu Tsai Theater, David Geffen Hall, where the New York Philharmonic brings one of cinema’s most iconic thrillers to terrifying life.
This Halloween, witness the legendary Bernard Herrmann score — hailed as one of the Top 5 Greatest Film Scores of All Time by the American Film Institute — performed live in sync with Hitchcock’s 1960 masterpiece. Conductor Stephen Mulligan, known for his striking command and cinematic sensitivity, leads this hair-raising performance that turns every screeching violin and ominous motif into a visceral experience.
Psycho, a cornerstone of psychological horror, redefined the genre through its stark visuals and gripping music. Herrmann’s score — with its stabbing strings and restless undercurrents — transforms the film’s tension into a soundscape of pure dread. Hearing it live, in real time, elevates the suspense to exquisite new heights.
