BBC SSO Psycho (1960): Film with Live Orchestra

A sinister motel, a strange young man, the sheer terror that lurks behind a shower-curtain...it’s no wonder that the stabbing violins of Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho have become the soundtrack to all our nightmares.

So this Halloween, give yourself the shivers all over again with this special big-screen showing.

If you saw our popular screening of Bride of Frankenstein in 2025, you’ll know what to expect.

If you didn’t, the concept is simple: Hitchcock’s classic thriller is screened in all its spine-chilling splendour.

But beneath the screen is the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra with conductor Ben Palmer, performing Bernard Herrmann’s classic score live and in synch with the movie.

This is terror with a whole new dimension...
