Korngold

But it turns out that two other émigré composers, Erich Wolfgang Korngold and Max Steiner, who were both influenced by Mahler, created the modern symphonic film score.

This time around, the symphony will be performed along with Erich Wolfgang Korngold’s Violin Concerto featuring Norwegian violinist Vilde Frang.

This fall, the Calidore returns to Colburn to survey a hometown composer, the Hollywood film-score icon Erich Wolfgang Korngold, playing his little-known three string quartets in the first program, in Zipper Hall.

The orchestra was preparing to release a recording, made on the Fox scoring stage, of a new concerto by Oscar winner Kris Bowers — part of an ambitious “Korngold Project” of three new concertos by composers who straddled Hollywood and classical.

In the middle of Erich Wolfgang Korngold’s suite of incidental music for “Much Ado About Nothing,” there’s a march meant to accompany Dogberry, Shakespeare’s comic constable, and his fellow watchmen.
