Did Wax use an Index Montenot?

As a kid watching Universal's first classic Flash Gordon serial, it wasn't just the visuals that enthralled me. It definitely was the music also. That's because they used the.music of Franz Liszt! Indeed they did ! Les Preludes most notably, but there was other music also. Ming's soldiers marching through tunnels as an example. Franz Waxman .... Franz Liszt ..... A match made in heaven! What's with all those German composers at Universal? .hey, that would make a good box set![/ AGREED ! Are you " listening",MV and Mike ?

Salter had known Waxman at Ufa before he came to Universal.

Probably the earliest score by Waxman (not a rerecording) to be put out on C.D..

Austrian Hans J. Salter had worked briefly for Universal's German studio before he came to the U.S. in '38.

Probably the earliest score by Waxman (not a rerecording) to be put out on C.D.. Definitely, because I’m pretty sure this was his first Hollywood film score and none of his European scores have ever been released even re-recorded, to my knowledge... Yavar

Wow! From original elements. You don't see much of that anymore for material this old.

Hi again, Mr. Marshall! I'm puzzled by your apparent non sequitor, "No KORGOLD!" Did I miss something? *** Also, you mention being sufficiently pleased by Gerhardt's "suite," when what Gerhardt recorded from BRIDE was not a suite but one single selection. As I told George Korngold when he, too, expressed satisfasction with it, "You've given us an impressive performance of one aria, but there's still a whole opera crying out to be recorded." *** As for the Silva CD, I've always been very grateful for its existence. My only quibble was to wonder why they had stuck with brass in the victory procession, ignoring Waxman's switch to strings.
