Erich Korngold

Czechoslovakian composer Erich Wolfgang Korngold penned many memorable scores for Warner Brothers (and occasionally other studios) during the '30s and '40s. Korngold began his distinguished career as a child prodigy and began composing and conducting in Viennese and Berlin concert halls until emigrating to the U.S. in the 1930s. - Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
