A master of every phase of the conductor's art, and an interpeter of supreme attainments.
The HMV/Electrola Wagner Orchestral Recordings 1927-29
Overtures to Die Meistersinger • Tannhäuser • Flying Dutchman
Götterdämmerung Prologue & Trauermusik Act 3
Parsifal Act 1, Tristan und Isolde Act 1 & Lohengrin Act 3 Preludes
(Berlin State Opera Orchestra)
These are valuable historical documents, but also distinctive and convincing performances in their own right, the likes of which are not often to be heard today....The sound is more vivid than on the Centaur CD and, in the Parsifal Prelude, vastly preferable to Opal's edition. Fi (USA)
