Hiya
I have a CD with a recording of this piece which sounds very like that which was sung in the Korngold film. Hopefully someone can tell me for definite that it is the same piece as in the film. I'm sure it is. The CD is called From the Operas of Erich Wolfgang Korngold produced in 1989 on Cambria records. It contains 1 piece from Polykrates, 1 from Violanta, 2 from tote Stadt, 1 from Heliane and 6 from Die Kathrin. According to the liner notes it was recorded in Vienna in 1949 by the Austrian State Radio Orchestra, under different conductors including Korngold.
The pieces from Katrin are:
Briefszene...soprano Ilona Steingruber, conductor Gottfried Kassowitz
Ich bin ein Liedersaenger
soprano...Gundula Janowitz, tenor..Rudolf Christ, conductor...Wilhelm Loibner
Szene in Nachtlokal
soprano...Rosl Schwaiger, tenor Anton Dermota, conductor...Gottfried Kassowitz
Soldaten Marsch und Gebet
Soprano...Ilona Steingruber, conductor Gottfried Kassowitz
Arie des Malignac
baritone...Alfred Poell, conductor Gottfried Kassowitz
Wanderlied (the one you refer to in your question)
tenor..Anton Dermota, conductor...Erich Wolfgang Korngold
It is on the CambriaCD 1032 Historical series according to the notes.
I hope this helps.
