  • Damn..Leopold Stokowski could really tear up a floor.

  • Apparently Stokowski had a patch of bubble gum stuck to his jacket for TWO years until someone was brave enough to point it out.

  • Any video of the great Stokowski is a treasure! He was one of the half dozen or so greatest conductors of all time, IMO, a list that I would say includes Mahler, Nikisch, Toscanini, Furtwangler, and ? Cantelli/Carlos Kleiber/Karajan/Klemperer/Rein­er/Walter?

  • Tear up the floor indeed, and then set it on fire afterward. These clips are a treasure.

  • Not the most exciting, but certainly one of the most memorable!

  • Leopold... the finest ever

  • HIGH, SOULFUL,at times GIGANTIC!!!
