Composer:
Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky

Conductor:
John Barbirolli

Background: This recording of Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony is an ‘off-air’ recording of a concert broadcast from Utica in New York State during the last week of November 1939. Between 20 November and 3 December 1939, Barbirolli was on tour with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra and they played at fourteen different centres in as many days – Scranton, Baltimore, Washington, Pittsburgh, Toledo, Kalamazoo, Chicago, Ann Arbor, Columbus, Utica, Dayton (Canada), Hamilton, Ottawa and Toronto. The tour was the highlight of the 1939-40 season and was much enjoyed by both the orchestra and conductor. Barbirolli and the orchestra read ecstatic eulogies of themselves in every town they visited.

This 'live' recording of Schumann’s Fourth Symphony is from New York’s Carnegie Hall on 7 November 1937, early in his first full season with the orchestra.
