Description
|
|
|
|
The longtime curator of the Arturo Toscanini archive, Mortimer Frank profiles the legendary conductor here, focusing on the capstone of the maestro's career: his leadership of the NBC Symphony Orchestra from 1937 to 1954, which made Toscanini's name virtually synonymous with conducting. Frank's lively account draws on all of Toscanini's recorded broadcasts and material from the family's own archives, correcting misconceptions about the man himself and the era he dominated.
