The Furtwangler Record Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Furtw-ngler's recordings remain for many the standard by which all subsequent performances are judged. This study offers an overview of his career and his place in the mainstream of the German school of conducting, with commentaries on all his recorded performances.

Book News Annotation:

A study of one of the most idolized figures in music during the 1920s and 1930s, whose name is linked with Hitler's Third Reich. It offers an overview of Furtwangler's place in the mainstream of the German school of conducting, and discusses his career, personality, and the quality of his art. The bulk of the book consists of detailed commentaries on each of his rare recorded performances. Includes a number of the conductor's writings and letters, a discography, and b&w photos.
