Rare. Rene Leibowitz conducts The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (1962)
-------------------------

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.

    Such beautiful music, it brings tears to my eyes. God definitely inspired all our former, fantastic musicians, including Wagner, and now they will be in Heaven

    This is my favorite piece from Wagner. The beauty in the notes (just before bugs bunny appears) shakes my soul away.

    Indeed. Actually the film Excalibur got me into Wagner. I guess the route isn't important. Recognising good art, that's important.

    The artwork in the video is a mural from Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, in a room called the King's Study. (I rather doubt much study got done with pictures like that around...) The artist was Josef Aigner.
