Press Release Warner Archive Collection Press Release: The Prince and the Pauper (1937) (Blu-ray) (1 Viewer)

There's a fantastic recording of the Korngold soundtrack on Tribute Records, William Stromberg conducting The (whisper it) Moscow Symphony Orchestra, it just sounds so good. Korngold used some of the films themes for his violin concerto (a lovely sunny work - when I want a bit of angst it's the Shostakovich 1st, but for sheer beauty the Korngold takes a lot of beating). I don't think Tribute do soundtrack recordings anymore, & this CD is a silly price on Amazon, but SAE still have it for $20.

Not for at least a decade, but Stromberg is doing recordings for Intrada now with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra (last year, they released a re-recording of Herrmann’s The Man Who Knew Too Much and On Dangerous Ground). I have yet to pick up the Tribute recording, but I do love the Violin Concerto (I have a CD with Jascha Heifetz performing it paired with Rózsa’s Violin Concerto).
