Conductor:
Felix Weingartner

Background: The legendary conductor Felix Weingartner was renowned for his expressive interpretation of the classical repertoire, particularly the music of Beethoven, and was the first to conduct all the Beethoven symphonies on record. This 1935 recording of the Ninth was instantly hailed as a landmark performance.

Weingartner ably demonstrates the hallmark of a great conductor, allowing the music to breathe by creating the illusion of not imposing his own personality on it.
