Product Description
CD84870 Christoph von Dohnanyi WDR/ + Portrait
Christoph von Dohnanyi conducts the Kölner Rundfunk Sinfonieorchester in recordings from 1957 to 1969
Christoph von Dohnanyi was the musical director of the Cologne broadcast company´s symphony orchestra from 1964 up to 1969. Here are concert performances from this period including his first concert as musical director with Schubert´s "Zauberharfe" overture and the last one with Pfitzner´s "Käthchen von Heilbronn" overture. Dohnanyi´s farewell from Cologne was an unhappy one. The orchestra that von Dohnanyi was more busy abroad than at Cologne and a voting where nearly the complete orchestra voted against von Dohnanyi proved to become the end of his contract. He never again conducted the orchestra. The Mozart concerto is from the very first concert von Dohnanyi gave with the orchestra. An evening with young promising talents. The 27 years old conductor just had become the youngest chief conductor of a German opera house at Lübeck and the Kontarskys just had won the highly respected ARD music competition at Munich.

We sell only opera recordings. The recordings are sent to you in paper sleeves with no tray card or inserts, just the raw discs with printed labels. These recordings are of nonprofessional quality that are in the public domain. The quality of these old opera recordings is not very good and they are meant for collectors and educational purposes only. Most of them are 30 or 40 years old, so they might be blurry, colors faded, and not sound very good, but they might not be available elsewhere. Please note that most of our recordings do not have tracks, they have 1 long track per disc.
