Bruno Walter - Bruno Walter Conducts the Philharmonic Society - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Captured here in excellent sound is Walter's penultimate concert with the Philharmonic before he retired as it's guest conductor (Carnegie Hall, 10 February, 1957). The Idyll was a work much loved by Walter, and he recorded it in the studio six times during his career. This is an expansive performance, played with fervor and great transparency of detail. Walter used the Orel edition of Bruckner's original version, with his own changes and was one of Walter's specialties. This concert has never before been issued in any ; it is released in excellent sound with detailed notes by Mark Kluge, program annotator for the Chicago Symphony. Album Tracks 1. Ruhig Bewegt 2.
