On May 9, Jerry Goldsmith finally received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Goldsmith, the composer of over 200 film and television scores, died in 2004 at the age of 75.

This week on “Picture Perfect,” we’ll hear selections from four of Goldsmith’s classic scores, including “Patton” (just in time for Memorial Day), “Chinatown” (composed in only ten days), “The Wind and the Lion” (like all of these, Oscar-nominated), and “Star Trek: The Motion Picture” (the theme really caught fire when used in the television series “Star Trek: The Next Generation”).

Join me in celebrating “A Star for Jerry,” this Friday evening at 6 EDT, on WWFM – The Classical Network and wwfm.org.
