Background: Reiner is still celebrated as the conductor’s conductor by colleagues en tout, a legend in his own time who has reemerged as one in ours. Reiner was not a born performing musician, for he was no showman and had no intention of playing to the gallery. He respected listeners’ aural attention and cared little about being regarded as a famous maestro or a celebrity. The indefinable quality associated with performing music at concerts breathes life into these performances.
