Re: [LAU] Soundtrack from recorded TV

Way much better than what Moroder did once for this other old German movie "Metropolis" ! Thing is, it seems no credit are given to the composer/band who did it and IMDB lists several versions with different composers. "Faust - Eine deutsche Volkssage" http://imdb.com/title/tt0016847/combined The beginning song for the credits (the only song in the movie) sounds a bit like some In Extremo (the German folk metal band with the bagpipes) but the rest is way out of their domain. When some very short processed voices are introduced as the movie goes towards conclusion around the time Gretchen is in prison and dreaming of past days it becomes totally eerie. I sure would like to know who did that score since that person might very well have other interesting recordings. For some it might be sacrilege to do this for a silent movie; for me it's a great mesmerizing soundtrack :-) Thanks, I'll give it a try. Alles gut, Al
