My final posting of Fox Movietone Newsreel series. In this footage, we can see Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra rehearsing for the British tour under the direction of Eugene Ormandy, at Birmingham Concert Hall. This was Filmed on May 26th, 1949.

Sorry for the poor, distorted (lots of blasting) sound at the end of footage.

    Hard to believe that Pathe went to so much trouble to post these thousands of clips.

    Actually, I also have the original un-edited 'raw' footage of this performance, but since it was too long (26 minutes) for YT, I decided to upload this.

    - Actually this is not McLane. He was ill and unable to go on this tour and Gino Cioffi played the tour.

    The british flag (Union Jack) and the US flag (Stars and Stripes) associated, three years after the 2nd WW, great symbol for me who was visiting Colleville last summer in Normandy, other symbol with this german componist !!!

    What a white-hot and thrilling ending of the Brahms 2nd. How I would like to have been at that concert!

    Wow if you have 26 minutes of this PLEASE post it if you can. Some people have uploaded whole feature films in clips of about 10 minutes each. Thanks so much for this treasure.
