All Music Guide Review

Varese's 1999 Citizen Kane presents a re-recording of Bernard Herrman's entire original score for Orson Welles' modernist masterpiece, as performed by the Royal Scottish National Orchestra under the direction of Joel McNeely. This recording does not reinterpret the score, it simply offers an excellent straight-ahead rendition of one of the greatest musical works in film history. It may not be definitive, but it will be close enough for many listeners. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
