THE PRINCE AND THE PAUPER
composed by Erich Wolfgang Korngold
Rich ... complex ... difficult ... demanding ... impossibly fast ... and fun. These are but a few of the descriptions attributed to the film music of Erich Wolfgang Korngold. So it is with Tribute Film Classics' impeccable new rerecording of Korngold's music for The Prince and the Pauper, the 1937 Warner Bros. version of Mark Twain's endearing tale of mistaken identity and court intrigue starring Errol Flynn.

IT'S NOT NORMAL!!!!! This score that John Morgan, Anna Bonn, and I did back in 1999 is now available for download only at itunes and CD Baby. The score is quite dark and somewhat influenced by Goldsmith, Goldenthal, and Herrmann. It's fully orchestral and performed by the Russian National Symphony Orchestra. http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/strombergmorganbonn Synopsis: This end-of-the-millennium drama deals with the breakdown of communication, the loss of identity and the facelessness of corporate life. Phil and Anna are a young married, New York couple whose belief in their commitment to each other is on extremely tenuous ground. Each suspects the other of infidelity and even for this very modern thinking couple, this represents the worst kind of threat. But even as they feel each other slipping away, they are willing to do anything to save their relationship. Set in a highly stylized world in which no visual image, or character is random, Phil and Anna's fractured world can't help but implode. End of Commercial: Back to regular programming of Rants, Raves, and Lists. I hope you all like this score. William Stromberg
