Note: Although "There Won't Be Trumpets" was cut from the show during previews and absent from the cast album when it was originally issued, it was recorded by Lee Remick. The song has subsequently been reinstated in the score and the Remick recording was included on the cast album when it was reissued on CD. Consequently, I have decided not to include discological information for this song.
