Reasonably priced at 19.99 Euro, it should sell well with his latest appointment. I will certainly be interested.

Originally posted by Daniel View PostA school friend played in the EYO when Karajan was conducting, and as he always shut his eyes when conducting, in one rehearsal the orchestra all shut their's (very bravely!) just as Karajan was bringing them in. When no sound came, Karajan opened his eyes, saw all their closed eyes and actually took in it good humour. He explained that the reason he shut his eyes, was that he had photographic memory and saw the score in his head as he conducted.Pacta sunt servanda !!!

Originally posted by slarty View PostQuite a lot of diverse orchestral repertoire from him is available on youtube (including some Suk, but not Asrael)
It is worth checking out.

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

With KP extending his tenure at the Bayerische Staatsoper and delying his start at the Berliner Philharmoniker I wonder what is going on. Most conducters would have jumped at the Berlin job which is arguably the biggest in music. I sense that KP does not really want the Berlin job.Last edited by Stanfordian; 13-11-15, 12:25.

The news might be a few weeks old but my post is in response to the article 'Petrenko renews in Munich' in the Newsdesk column of the newly published Opera magazine (December edition) received today.

Hello Stanfordian
Ah, I see. The reason I asked is that I supposed it was fairly widely accepted that events were more or less what they seemed on the surface. Something similar has just happened with Nelsons and Leipzig. I don't think even the Berlin Phil can now rely on being able to summon like an emperor of old.
