Berliner Philharmoniker, Carl Schuricht Although Schuricht’s career had started in a fairly
typical manner for a future young conductor born in
Wilhelmine Germany, it was now becoming clear
that, despite some experience in the opera house
(the traditional route to fame with the baton in
Central Europe), it would be the concert hall
towards which he naturally gravitated. The 1920s
saw him co-conducting a Brahms Festival with
Furtwängler, launching in Wiesbaden the ‘First
German Mahler Festival’ and travelling to St. Louis.
In the years leading up to the Second World War
Schuricht spread his wings further, starting a regular
relationship with Dutch orchestras and festivals
(1930), making débuts with the LSO (1931) and the
Vienna Philharmonic (1934) and in Berlin (1933).
During the war years he held guest conductorships
in Frankfurt and Dresden and managed (also like
Furtwängler) to escape to Switzerland in the last
months of the conflict. He maintained a home there
for the rest of his life. | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |

Berliner Philharmoniker, Wilhelm Furtwängler The present Cd features three very popular symphonic works which Wilhelm Furtwängler, the great and tormented German conductor, recorded at the end of his career. A profoundly tragic inspiration dominates Brahms’s grandiose First Symphony, recorded in Berlin in February 1952 and considered ever since one of Furtwängler’s more controversial and personal interpretations. Wonderful, in all of its dramatic tension, is the reading of Schumann’s Manfred Overture (1953), one of the pieces best loved by the German conductor. The CD ends with Schubert’s Rosamunde Overture (1949), imbued with grave and solemn Romanticism. Three great symphonic pages in a re-mastering which enhances all of their hidden and overlooked qualitites of sound and interpretation. 1949-1953 recordings | | | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days. |
