Description

Erich Wolfgang Korngold

Czechoslovakian-born composer who, after producing much well-received “serious” music (including the still-important opera Die Todt Stadt), enjoyed great success as one of the most respected and in-demand film composers of the 1930s and 1940s. Nominated for a total of four Academy Awards, Korngold won two, for Anthony Adverse (1936) and The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938). ALS in German, on a 5.25 x 3.25 postcard featuring a photo of Korngold, September 2, 1918. Korngold writes to A. R. Seiden in Mödling. In part (translated): “I confirm with thanks the receipt of your card…. Unfortunately, I don’t know to which matter it refers. Perhaps you were not aware of this confusion….” Mild handling wear, otherwise fine condition. R&R COA.
