I'm sure if a wealthy film music fan had $200k to drop on it, the Tribute team would happily be on a plane to Moscow to lay down the tracks.

The HORN got awful reviews when it was released and did poor business. Warners got scared and produced a truly terrible trailer which could only have turned off audiences . . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAwh4OlF2Oc The music comes off well, anyway.

"For a great alternate 'Horn', check out the Ford Theater radio version with Benny and Claude Rains. The script is very different, much more clever, with one of the biggest laugh lines happening in the opening scene of the play." *** I'm just a wee bit late to see this thread. Ray, if you're still looking in, can you please tell us where/how to access the Ford Theater radio show? By any chance, is it online somewhere? Or on a recording perhaps?

Thank you, dear sir! From now on you'll always be famous with me for your kind thoughtfulness.

And I AM Ray and thanks for jumping in Eccles! Now, here is a radio performance of Waxman's suite from THE HORN as performed on The Standard Hour: http://www.chelsearialtostudios.com/horn_blows_at_midnight_standard.mp3 Thank you so much for posting this recording, Ray! Fascinating to hear Stokowskis classicistic approach! Obviously the overture was partially reworked later on - just compare this to the Richard Mills version on the "Legends of Hollywood Vol.1" album...
