¡J.S Bach. Mozart. Beethoven. Klemperer
¡Otto Klemperer (conductor)
Description
[Machine Translation] Otto Klemperer ( 1885-1973 ) is one of the most famous German conductors of the 20th century. He was one of the most famous German conductors of the 20th century, and his great name has not faded at all. He is known as a conductor with a wide repertoire who, in his later years, focused on seeing through the thick scores of Mahler and other composers with his own aesthetic of "setting a thoroughly slow and rigorous tempo" and avoiding excessive emotional involvement as much as possible. However, it is also said that his performances in the 1950s were a bit more immediate. The Cologne Radio producer Eigel Kruttge, who had been Klemperer's assistant at the Cologne Opera since the 1920s, wrote in his diary that his impression was that "from the first bar, he was like a lion's claws tearing through the score. After the success of the Bach and Mozart concerts in 1954, Klemperer was invited back to the Cologne Radio Symphony Orchestra the following year, and demonstrated his true potential in Beethoven's First Symphony. The following year, Klemperer was invited to perform Beethoven's First Symphony. However, this performance was made after his legendary guest appearance in London, when he signed a contract with Walter Legg, a producer at EMI in the UK, and started recording with the Philharmonia Orchestra. The recordings were not released on LP or CD, but were carefully preserved. The confidence of Klemperer, who had achieved worldwide fame as a maestro, can be clearly seen in this performance.
