| Özet: | In comparison to his contemporaries Miklós Rózsa, Erich Wolfgang Korngold, or Max Steiner (all prominent figures in the history of ‚classical‘ Hollywood film music), Franz Waxman (1906–1967) has been underresearched. The monograph Franz Waxman – Zwischen Filmmusik und Konzertsaal utilizes Waxman as a case study, offering a fresh perspective on Hollywood film music from the 1930s to the 1960s that extends beyond mere biographical or music-analytical examinations. In addition to his work for Hollywood, Waxman played diverse roles in the international music business, such as festival organizer, conductor, and composer of concert music. |
