Info for Golden Age Songs And Instrumentals (Remastered)

For Korngold and Steiner fans and unashamed romantics this unusual collection is a rare treat. These songs and instrumentals come from some of the best-loved films of the 1930s and ’40s. The small forces here (no big lush orchestras) create a beguiling intimacy. If these songs had graced today’s films they would have been commercially exploited for all they were worth.

Not surprisingly, considering the Viennese backgrounds of both composers, the songs are very much the stuff of operetta, melodic and very heart-on-sleeve; and soprano Maria Montez sings them all beautifully and without the slightest hint of denigration.

Albert Dominguez, piano
Maria Martino, soprano
