Title: Much Ado About Something
Post by: mbhaub on Tuesday 07 May 2013, 01:58
Finally -- after only hearing the suite, and then various other movement on ASV of Korngold's Much Ado About Nothing incidental music, there is a recording of the complete score - on Toccata, with John Mauceri and the UNC orchestra. Marvelous! Such wonderfully alive, beautiful, tuneful music. If you know, and like, the suite, you must get this disk. Just more proof, as if it's needed, that Korngold was a great composer whose music was undeservedly neglected.

There's another recording on Ondine that recently came out, but I haven't been able to acquire it.

Bravo Toccata!
