0 # Brendan G Carroll 2011-06-17 21:48 I am Korngold's biographer and President of the International Korngold Society [www.korngold-society.org] and, as far as I know, he did not write a Saxophone Concerto! I'd therefore love to know what piece has been adapted by Ashu for this concert.

With many thanks
