868.0. "How about Erich Korngold?" by HUMAN::BURROWS (Jim Burrows) Thu Aug 20 1987 00:53

        I find I'm quite fond of Erich Wolfgang Korngold, no doubt from
        watching too many Erol Flynn films in my formative years. For
        all you young'uns he sounds a lot like John Williams, having
        written scores for a number of films in the 1930s and 40s which
        are very reminiscent of the Star Wars and Raiders of the Lost
        Ark scores. 
        
        So far I have the music from Robin Hood and Kings Row and
        Sinfonietta for Large Orchestra, Op. 5, all recorded on the
        Var�se Sarabande label. Does anyone know of any other Korngold
        CDs? Var�se Saraband is a fairly obscure label, and hard to
        track down.
