About this item
Relive the days of yesteryear in this fabulous setting of the music from the original score to the 1938 Robin Hood movie! The splendor of Korngold’s classic score evokes the feel of Sherwood Forest in a rich piece accessible for a middle level or advanced orchestra that sounds lush with strings alone or with the addition of winds. Strong melodic content and rich harmonies create an exciting musical experience.

Composer
Erich Korngold (1897-1957)
Erich Wolfgang Korngold (May 29, 1897 – November 29, 1957) was an Austro-Hungarian film and romantic music composer. While his compositional style was considered well out of vogue at the time he died, his music has more recently undergone a reevaluation and a gradual reawakening of interest. Along with such composers as Max Steiner and Alfred Newman, he is considered one of the founders of film music.
Korngold won the Academy Award for his score to The Adventures of Robin Hood in 1938, widely considered one of the greatest scores ever written. His score to Anthony Adverse (1936) also won the Oscar; however, at this time, the Oscar was awarded to the head of the music department of the studio which produced the movie, not the composer him/herself (coincidentally, the year Korngold won for The Adventures of Robin Hood was the first in which the composer, and not the studio music department head, was awarded the Oscar).
