About This Item
It had been always said that our knowledge of Bruno Walter's performing art is based upon the recordings the conductor realized in the US at the end of a long career. Many are indeed quite incredible, but to find the power typical of this conductor it is necessary look at the American recordings of the 1940s. This collects four such recordings; in addition to works of Mozart, Dvorak and Schubert is Robert Schumann's poetical and beautiful Symphony No, 4, op. 120 in an interpretation far from the German tradition more genuine, touching and deep.
