Beethoven-Leonore Overture 3/Leibowitz-RPO 1/2

Rare. Audio. Rene Leibowitz conducts The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (1962) in Beethoven's only opera 'Fidelio' which opened in Vienna, 1880. The opera tells how Leonore, disguised as a prison guard named "Fidelio", rescues her husband Florestan from death in a political prison.
Rene Leibowitz (1913-1972) was born in Warsaw but moved to Paris in his teens and there began a long, illustrious conducting career. Particularly interested in contemporary music, he studied with Webern and Schoenberg and wrote a detailed analysis of twelve-tone music. A keen ear for instrumental coloration (Ravel was his orchestration teacher) was evident in his kaleidoscopic transcriptions of such works as Bach's Passacaglia and Fugue in C (for double orchestra!). But he is best known for his often highly personal renditions of many staples of the Classical and Romantic repertoire.
Here's Pt 2

Amazing Larry! Had an uncle who loved operas and ballet which seemed rather out of character as he was a Merchant Seaman! I`ve never been to an opera! Stars and hugs dear friend..Jan (and Susan.)x
