How often does a student opera company get to stage the U.S. premiere of a work by a major 20th-century composer? Mannes Opera has done just that with Erich Wolfgang Korngold's 'The Silent Serenade'

A new release pairs a historic recording of Erich Wolfgang Korngold's only symphony with a treasure from the family vaults: a performance by the composer of his piano transcription.

A late work by Tchaikovsky and an early one by Korngold reveal the possibilities of the string sextet in a fine new recording from the Nash Ensemble.

The new album from the Jerusalem Quartet and soprano Hila Baggio brings back the sound and sensibility of a bygone time and place with skill and high spirits.

Fine musicianship and rich, live sound make this new album an enlightening introduction to some seldom-heard but very worthwhile music by composers born in, or who made a strong mark in, the United States.

Film music at its best from the National Philharmonic, part of a series of Sony Masterworks reissues.
