A few years (actually some 15 and more) I did extensive research on Fritz Lang, METROPOLIS and DIE NIBELUNGEN. Magnificent pictures, unfortunately these productions were plagued by a perfectionist of director, some pretty fuzzy ideology (nothing Nazi or fascist, more cheesy and campy), overlength and an enourmous waste of budget. Still, great to watch if you can get used to movies being in black and white and without sound – except for music.
And the music is great! 🙂
This recording sounds very much like taken from a DVD-set, unfortunately without any track names.
Speaking of Metropolis, I heard that Polish composer Abel Korzeniowki composed a new score to Metropolis sometime ago, does anyone have access to this?
Thanks again!

However, it doesn’t seem like it’s very long, not sure how long the score he wrote was and if there’s any music missing.
I’m looking for the 1966 German film "Die Nibelungen: Siegfried & Krimhield’s Rache", music composed by Rolf Wilhelm. Would love to give this a listen, there is a 2CD version with scores from both films, but any version would be great to start with, Thanks!

Revised cover art:
Gururu, your cover is great, not trying to replace it, just offering an alternate, similar style, using a different background image.
I also would love to get some track titles (even just fan-made ones based on scenes), it really helps me to put the music in a story context as I listen.

@gururu – you’re right; the last 2 tracks don’t belongs to Nibelungen – they can delete; don’t know,too what it is…
Can any nice guy help to re-upload? Many thanks in advance!
Thank you, Lens, for the info. Please keep us updated when it would come out. Is it from Capriccio?
Lets all hope it will be a good orchestration then 🙂

Nice! 😀
(…) The recording is by the same excellent team who did the recent Metropolis restoration and it’s wonderful to finally hear the music in all its glory. Anyone familiar with the dreadfully distorted 70s version from the DVD will appreciate the difference!
For this presentation I’ve ripped and resampled the lossless stereo PCM track from the blu-ray and edited it into a form more appropriate to standalone listing. Cutting 5 hours of music down to 2 (a cd’s worth for each film) wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be, but I’m happy with the final result. Unvaried repetition is avoided, but all the main themes and motifs get a full airing. I like to think Huppertz storytelling is unbroken too, although some passages have been shuffled slightly to make better musical sense.

Thanks for pointing us to that post!
I had watched Excalibur the other day and loved it. Trevor Jones’s citations of Wagner was inspired, and I’ve been looking out for similarly-influenced scores, so this is a great find!
Thanks a lot!!

As a side note, in German, the genitive case takes no apostrophe, so it would be "Fritz Langs"
