The
following is a mini-cue rundown of Korngold's score to "The
Prince and the
Pauper." Unfortunately, I did not have sufficient time
to examine
every cue of this fully orchestrated score held at the Warner
Bros Archives
at USC, so my analysis will be limited(hence the term
"mini"
rundown). The film stars Errol Flynn as the dashing soldier of
fortune, Miles
Hendon. Claude Rains plays the rather villanous Earl of
Hertford, and
Alan Hale as the Captain of the Guard. The score was
orchestrated
principally by Hugo Friedhofer, but Milan Roder
orchestrated
several cues as well.
THE PRINCE
& THE PAUPER
by
Erich Wolfgang Korngold
[1] "Main
Title" Reel 1, pt 1. Poco Maestoso in 2/4 time. 6 pp.,
1:38 duration.
Key signature of E major(4 sharps).[Note: Of course, for
transposing
instruments, the sharps are augmented, so that the clarinets
and Bb
trumpets have 6 sharps, English horn has 5 sharps].
Instrumentation:
3 flutes(piccolo doubling), oboe, English Horn, 2
clarinets,
bass clarinet, bassoon, contra bassoon, 4 horns, 3 tpts, Pos,
timp., vibe,
gong, snare drum, piatti, 2 harps, piano, celeste, 8
violins I, 6
violins II, 4 viole I, 2 viole II, 4 VC I, 2 VC II, 2 CB.
In Bar 1,
flute II and oboe are sfp on sforzando-marked B(b'')half
note tied
to(Bar 2, now C time)8th. Fl III and E> H> play b'. Vibe
rings between
b'-b'' half notes(notated like a fingered trem). Bells
strike the b'
and b'' quarter notes. Most prominently, the divisi
violins are
sfp rinforzando( > symbol above the note)bowed trem half
notes on B an
octave apart(b' & b'')crescendo( < ).
After a
quarter and dotted 8th rest, the violas/celli begin to play
f(forte)the
Main Title motif(Prince & Pauper motif, or King/royalty
theme). Viole
play on b(just below its middle C line located on the
middle line of
its standard alto clef, while VC I play on the
non-standard
"K" or "F" tenor clef, while VC II play on the standard
bass clef on
the B(b)16th. The unison horns & tpts also play the melody
line.
So we find B
16th in the grace bar up to(Bar 1)E tenuto quarter.
The harps here
strum mf the E maj quarter note chord(actual notes
B/E/G#/B)arpeggiando(vertical
wavy line rolled chord), followed by a
quarter rest.
The horns/tpts/viole/VC continue the melody line from
that E up to B
tenuto quarter notes to the combined F# Dom 7/11(added
11th)double-dotted
quarter note chord(F#/A#/C#/E/B). The harp is
arpeggiando
quarter notes on it(actual notes B/C#/E/F#/A#/C#/F#/A#).
Horns play
B/C#/E/B. Viole play sf on E/F#/A#/C#, etc. Leading up to
this, flute
I/E H/vlns I play a rising flourish figure of three 32nds
B-C#-D# to
"5" quintuplet 32nd notes E-F#-G#-A-B to the A# 8th
rinforzando note.
The melody
line continues with the F# maj(F#/A#/C#)16th sforzando
chord(horns
play it sustained on A#/C#/F#)to(Bar 3)the E maj 1st
inversion(G#/B/E/G#
of the vlns)quarter note chord(horns are sustained
on it as half
notes tied to dotted quarter notes)down to the E maj root
position(E/G#/B/E)quarter
note chord down to its 2nd inversion
B/E/G#/B)double-dotted
quarter note chord. Etc.
In Bar 3, harp
II is rising and falling glissandi on the 2nd & 3rd
beats. The
piano is descending arpeggiando quarter note chords.
Celeste plays
rising running figures of "7" then "8" then
"9" 32nd
notes.
Skipping to
:41(end of the first bar on page 4), the vlns & celli
continue the
melody line development(Vlns I = Line 3, II = Line 2, VC =

Harp II is arpeggiando on the 1st & 3rd beats. Clar I

[2] "A
Prince Is Born" Reel 1 pt 2. Allegro in 2/2 time. Scene:
London 1537.
"It's a boy!" is exclaimed as prince Edward Tudor of Wales
is born.
Three trumpets
play the announcement fanfare sf with the C
maj(C/E/G)half
note triad tied to 8ths, down to the C maj 1st
inv(E/G/C)staccato
8th chord(both 8th chords tied by a crossbeam)to new
figure of Bb

beats. The
harp is gliss forte mf on the 4th beat, and the snare drum
rolls.
At the end of
Bar 3, the vlns/viole play a 32nd note run forte of
A-B-C-D-E-F#-G-A
to(Bar 4) the E maj(E/G#/B)half note chord ff tied to

[3]
"Tavern & Palace" Reel 1/3. Scene: First the screen
shows the
baby Prince,
but cuts to the Pauper baby, Tom Canty. Music starts with
the
proclamation: "He will be king!" Cue ends with the
pizzicato of
the strings.
In Bars
29-33(when the King says, "You drink sparingly, my good
Norfolk...A
pity, because losing one's head from wine is so much less
than losing it
from treason."). Here the flutes & strings play(in 4/4
time)the G maj
2nd inv(D/G/B)dotted half note chord to the D
min(D/F/A)tenuto
dotted 8th chord(followed by a 16th rest), cres-desc(
< > ).
Repeat in Bar 29. Specifically, 6 vlns I play it Line 3
register(Line
2 notation by with the 8va ottava symbol above the
notes)while 6
vlns II in the staff below play it Line 2 register. Viole
are Line
1(middle C)register; VC play it G(G)/D(d)/B(b); CB plays the
G/D dyad.
In Bar 36,
vlns play it as root position G maj(G/B/D)half note
chord down to
the F/A half note dyad. Repeat next bar. Then
sustained(tied)G/B/D
whole notes in Bar 32 tied to next bar, held
fermata(upper
semi-circle and enclosed dot symbol above the notes).
Viole I staff
play the D whole note tied to next bar. Repeat next two
bar(held
fermata). Viole II staff play G/B to F/A half note dyads. VC
I play
D(d')whole note tied to next bar, then repeated(as in Viole I).
VC II play D/G
to A half notes, etc. CB play G/g to D/d half note
dyads. Sordini
horns ! & II are unison pp on D whole note tied in Bars
30-33, etc.
Then you hear
for the first time the "treason" motif(which is heard
later in the
"Biscuit & Seal" cue when the Earl of Hertford--played by
Claude
Rains--is present in the scene). Basically it is a three-note
pattern of the
trill of two 8th notes to a quarter note.
As the
surrogate mother of the King's child is seen, the vlns & viole
play a 32nd
note run figure cres < f(notes E/F/G/A, B/C#/D/E)to(Bar
42)the rinf D
min 1st inv(F/A/D/F)quarter note chord to the rinf C maj
2nd
inv(G/C/E)quarter note chord. Then the fls/obs/cls are trill on the
C# min(C#/E/G#).
As the King is
with the baby(commenting on how the weight of
royalty will
make Edward wish we was born a pauper rather than a
prince)the
royalty(Prince & Pauper)theme is delicately played(presence
of the
innocent baby)by the quasi sub-tone clarinets, the staccato notes
of the harp,
the cleste arpeggiando, strings bowed trem ponticello.
Later on page
16(piu mosso misterioso)you see the pauper baby and
the low-life
dad. The pauper father's theme is played(see next cue).
Finally, the
mother of the child soothes the baby(page 18)as you hear
the solo
violin play the triplet value D quarter note to two C 16ths(all
three notes
under the "3" bracket triplet value)to three triplet value
quarter
notes(followed by a half rest). Altri strings play half note
chords.
[4]
"Tom" Energico in C time. Reel 1/4. Scene: Tom's cruel dad.
Music starts
when he says, "I'll knock them royal ideas out of your
head!"
Sordini
horns/vlns/viole play the odd, halting or syncopated phrase
of staccato
16ths. We find the horns playing rinforzando G 8th in the
grace bar
to(Bar 1)G 16th staccato(followed by a 16th rest). Then G 8th
to 16th
staccato(followed by a 16th rest)to the G 8th again(all four
notes
connected by a crossbeam)to the G#/C# dotted half notes, cres ff.
Bassoons play
the F#/B dotted quarter notes. Cymbals sound, and the
snare drum
plays a five-note ruff. Piano/celli/basses play accentuated
chords on the
1st, 2nd, and 3rd beats. Piano plays C/Eb/F#/G 8th notes
on the 1st
beat, G/Bb/C/D# 8ths on the 2nd beat, then I believe the
E/G#/A#/B
dotted quarter note chord on the 3rd beat(followed by an 8th
rest). 12 vlns
and viole play the horns' line. So four top staff
violins play
forte lowest G to(Bar 1)G/F# 16ths(followed by a 16th
rest), repeat,
then finally to the C# dotted quarter note. Etc etc.
[5]
"Tom(continuation)" Reel 2/1. Scene: Tom sneaks back home/
cruel dad
steals the book given to Tom by Father Andrew.[Sorry, no added

this cue]
[6] "The
Bench" Reel 2/2. Scene: Sad Tom a the rainy royal
courtyard.
[7] "The
Prince" Reel 3/1. Scene: The Prince eats and then
visits Dad(the King).
Skipping to
page 13, when the ten year old Edward says "I think I'd
like to play
now!" the flute/ob/bassoons(and I believe the bells)play
the spritely
melody phrase of staccato 8th notes G up to D down to D
down to
bb(connected by a crossbeam)to next crossbeam figure 8ths of
C-Ab-Eb-Ab(rinforzando
on the Ab)to(next bar)F up to bb-G-Eb up to the
next figure of
B-G#-C-A. Sordini tpts play tenuto 8th notes positioned
to syncopate
the rhythm. So Ab 8th at the end of that first bar on page
13 to(next
bar)8th rest, then staccato Bb 8th, 8th rest, Ab 8th note,
8th rest, C
8th(followed by an 8th rest).
The piano and
pizz strings also play on that syncopated pattern.
So vlns play
Line 1 register D/Ab and Line 2 D/Ab to(next bar0an 8th
rest, then
Lines 1 & 2 Eb/Bb, etc. After that two-bar phrase, the oboes
and
bells(?)are silent, but the clarinet joins in with the flute for the
next two-bar
phrase. etc.
[8]
"Biscuit and Seal" Reel 3/2. Scene: Music starts when Edward
asks,
"What was my mother like?" to the King.
When the Royal
Seal is brought to the King in the middle of page
4(Bar 15), the
fls/obs/bassoons/Pos/pno/strings are put on the D# min
key
signature(six sharps)while the clarinets/tpts/harp are placed on the
Eb
min(enharmonic)key sig(six flats). Here the bassoons/harp/piano/CB
play a serious
& sober version of the Main title(King/Royalty motif).
We find the
low C# 16th up to(Bar 15)the F staccato rinf 8th(followed by
an 8th rest)up
to tenuto C# quarter to the B# double-dotted quarter down
to the G# 16th
to(Bar 16)A# to F# tenuto quarter notes down to the C#
double-dotted
quarter, etc.
[9]
"Prince Goes Back" Reel 3/3. Lento misterioso in C time.
Scene: The
King gets ill again, and the Earl of Hertford(Claude Rains)is
told "Get
out!" as well as Edward. The stgs and cls play a three-note
low suspense
pattern. Vlns play Bb to middle C trill 8th notes to(Bar
2)Bb/Eb tenuto
quarter dyad. Repeat. Then in Bar 3, A/D half notes
tied to
quarter notes. Viole play it as F-F# to(Bar 2)E(natural). VC
play it as
half arco/half pizz G-G# to(Bar 2)C/G. Cls play G-G# to G.
At the end of
Bar 2, sord horn II plays p cresc Bb-C 8ths to(Bar 3)rinf
D dotted 8th
to D 16th to D-D 8ths(all four notes connected by a
crossbeam)to
the D quarter tenuto note, desc(followed by a quarter
rest).
Meanwhile, the harp plays pp a 32nd note rising run figure in
each
bar(G-A-Bb-C-D-Eb-F-G-A-Bb-C-D), etc etc.
[10] "The
Captain" Allo moderato in 2/4 time. Reel 4/1. Scene:
The Capatin of
the Guard(Alan Hale)sees Tom Canty. Music seques from
the previous cue.
The harp
sounds a F half-diminished 7th(F/Ab/Cb/Eb)8th chord
arpeggiando(piano
joins in as well). Then a rapidly ascending
syncopated
phrase is played by the violins, then joined by the E H in
Bar 2, and by
the flutes in Bar 3. So we find vlns playing lowest Ab
16th(followed
by a 32nd rest)to Bb 32nd to Cb 16th(with 32nd rest)to Db
32nd(all notes
connected by crossbeams)to next rising figure of D 16th,
etc. Viole etc
play staccato 8th notes, initially col legno("on the
wood").
In Bar 4(now
4/4 time)the vlns are bowed trem p on Lines 2 & 3 Ab
whole note.
The small cymbal sounds, etc.
[11] "The
Boys Go To Play" Reel 4/2. Scene: Edward takes in Tom
before the
Capatin could harm him. Delightful little melody played
first by the
low vlns & viole, then the flute & harp take over(with the
bassoons
partially)in Bars 4-8.
So we find the
flute playing p "leggiero"(lightly)staccato 8th notes
Line 1
register A-B-A-D(d'')to(Bar 5)D(d'')quarter to staccato E
8th(followed
by an 8th rest). Then E quarter up to A 8th(followed by an

next bar's A.
Bassoon I plays the passage thru Bar 5. Strings are pizz
in Bar 5, then
arco in Bar 6, pizz again in Bar 7. The vibe is easily
heard after
the half rest in Bar 5, resonating the A/A(a/a')half notes
tied to whole
notes next bar to 8ths in Bar 7. After an 8th & quarter
rest, A/A
again as quarters tied to 8ths. The piano plays the E min
7/11(E/G/B/D/A)rhythm;
that is, E/A/G quarter notes in the bass clef
staff up to
the bass & treble quarter notes A/B/D/E, G/B/D/E, repeated.
etc.
[12]
"Mirror" Reel 4/3. Scene: Music starts when Edward says "Is
there any
vermin in this?"(referring to Tom's clothes).
On page 15(Bar
57), right after the pretend Prince Edward(Tom in
Edward's
clothes)says "Don't bother me, my lad!" flute II and piccolo
and celeste
play descending staccato 8th notes(I believe B-A-G#,
F#-E-D#-C#)to
Bar 58, taken over by flute I/cl I/piano. Then, in Bar
59, the vlns
& viole take over, playing initially descending then
ascending
