Strauss-Die Fledermaus Overture/Leibowitz

Rare. Rene Leibowitz conducts The New Symphony Orchestra of London (1961)

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.

I apologize for that 001. I'm so concerned about getting this very rare music out there for others who want to hear it that I just grab a quick pic somewhere to make the movie maker work. I would do audio only if YT would allow it. It's really all about the music lol.
