Erich Wolfgang Korngold: Sinfonietta, Op. 5/Violin Concerto, Op. 35

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Because he was one of the first and greatest of all film composers, critics used to sneer that everything Erich Wolfgang Korngold wrote sounded like movie music. The truth, of course, was just the opposite--it's the movie music that sounds like Korngold! One of the great child prodigies in musical history, he had a mature style fully in place by the time he was about eleven years old, and he never looked back. The Sinfonietta predates his involvement with film, and the Violin Concerto actually uses tunes from some of his Hollywood scores, but they're so clearly the work of the same composer that you'd never know the difference. If you like music that is lush, Romantic, and opulent, then go for it! --David Hurwitz
