Citizen Kane

Album by Bernard Herrmann & Royal Scottish National Orchestra & Joel McNeely

Citizen Kane is the film score by American composer Bernard Herrmann, released in 1941. The orchestral score employs dense string writing, varied brass and woodwind colourings and inventive harmonic and rhythmic devices to support the film's narrative, marking an early example of Herrmann's developing cinematic voice and a formative work in his career as a film composer.
