Beecham & Furtwangler

This amazing Beecham/Furtw¤ngler release contains works from two concerts
that Furtw¤ngler was to have conducted at the Royal Festival Hall, London,
in January 1955. Sadly, he passed away in November 1954 and Sir Thomas
Beecham conducted the two concerts with the repertoire as arranged, in
memory of their friendship and as an affectionate tribute to the great German
conductor. The two has been friends since the 1920s, each playing host when
visiting the other s country. The source material comes from off-the air
recordings of these live performances, and is absolutely unique!
