CD Release of Herrmann's Music
In 2010, the British label Chandos released a CD that includes a 17-minute concert suite from Hangover Square, put together by Stephen Hogger, and a Concerto Macabre for piano and orchestra which was pieced together in 1992 by Norma Shepherd and based on manuscript sources for Hangover Square. The disc also includes Stephen Hogger's extended suite based on Herrmann's manuscript for the soundtrack to Citizen Kane (1941).

Famous quotes containing the words release and/or music:
“The steel decks rock with the lightning shock, and shake with the
great recoil,
And the sea grows red with the blood of the dead and reaches for his spoil—
But not till the foe has gone below or turns his prow and runs,
Shall the voice of peace bring sweet release to the men behind the
guns!”
—John Jerome Rooney (1866–1934)
“O I shall hear skull skull,
Hear your lame music,
Believe music rejects undertaking,
Limps back.”
—Owen Dodson (b. 1914)
