As the film runs over two hours it was obvious that Mendelssohns composition would be too short. Instead of just repeating several musical cues to fit the films final length Korngold adapted the incidental music and parts of some other compositions by Mendelssohn, re-orchestrated them for a larger orchestra and choir (most notably heard in his Wedding March version at the end) and composed some short musical bridges by himself. Thus he created a complete symphonic score for the movie based on Mendelssohns music. However, he chose to remain uncredited as a composer and insisted on giving full musical credit to Mendelssohn.
