Foreword The New York Philharmonic owes James North a great debt of gratitude for bringing to light the remarkable recording legacy of the orchestra, which reaches all the way back to the early days of the last century. This work, based on hundreds of hours of research in the Philharmonic Archives and other repositories, brings to light an accounting not just of Philharmonic recordings but also of an orchestra whose history is unique in the world of music. Although it would be almost impossible to prove, I would venture to say that few, if any, orchestras in the world can match the Philharmonic’s catalogue in quantity. But this is not just about the number of recordings—rather, it is quality of the performances, the variety of artists, and the amount of music the orchestra has been able to share through its recordings that is truly staggering. The Philharmonic musicians’ renowned versatility is here, represented by recordings of music from all periods. Our orchestra’s longstanding commitment to new music is evident here in the impressive and extensive list of twentiethcentury composers whose works received their first performances or first recordings at the hands of the skilled Philharmonic musicians. Over the years, the Philharmonic has been a magnet for the world’s greatest musical talents who are represented here in the mind-boggling roster of conductors and soloists. And, you will be reminded—from variations in timings exhaustively documented here —that music making is far from a cut-and-dried business; rather, it is the highest interpretive art whose charm is those individual variations that recordings capture so beautifully and for all time. Today, the New York Philharmonic name is known the world over. A great deal of that global reputation can be attributed to its embrace of new media at every juncture in its history: from recording technology, when that medium was in its infancy, to live national radio and television broadcasts, to the World Wide Web that allows listeners to “tune in” to Philharmonic concerts over the internet. In my years with the Philharmonic I have heard from many, many artists the world over who have told me that their first exposure to music came to them in the form of a Philharmonic recording. I like to think of young, aspiring musicians in far-flung places listening to a vinyl disc back in the 1950s or to a CD in vii

the 1980s or a download of them today and finding, in that experience, the inspiration to continue with their studies so they, too, can perhaps end up on a Philharmonic recording one day. Recording technology has changed radically over time, but, as this meticulous volume demonstrates so beautifully, music is eternal and we should all be grateful that we live in an age when it can be captured and preserved for posterity.

Acknowledgments The primary source for information contained herein has been the records themselves. Some version of each issued recording in this discography’s main section is held by the New York Philharmonic Archives, with but a handful of exceptions. The Archives also has thirty-nine of the sixty Ginn & Company 78-rpm discs. Data on unreleased recordings comes from recording company archives. For information such as recording dates and locations I have relied on a variety of hand-written, typed, or printed information, such as the orchestra personnel manager’s weekly reports, weekly schedules, summaries of royalties received, and voluminous correspondence between Columbia producers and the orchestra’s management, all held at the New York Philharmonic Archives, as well as similar sources in other archives. Concert programs and archival computer listings of Philharmonic performances have been helpful. Special thanks are due to Barbara Haws, New York Philharmonic Archivist/Historian, who not only enabled my research at the Archives but also found a publisher and assisted with contract negotiations. Richard C. Wandel, Associate Archivist, was a constant guide and teacher, and Michele Smith answered many questions. Philharmonic Principal Librarian Lawrence Tarlow, Audio Director Lawrence Rock, and Orchestra Personnel Manager Carl R. Schiebler also showed me great kindness. Individual credits of a distinctive nature are reported in the appropriate recording entry. An enormous debt of gratitude is owed Steven Smolian. He received a grant to work on a New York Philharmonic discography in the late 1970s. A few printed copies of his extensive but unfinished work exist in the orchestra’s archives; one was loaned to the author in 1998, when he volunteered to attempt a New York Philharmonic discography. Smolian’s work covers primarily the Columbia recordings from 1940 to 1977 (a majority of Philharmonic recordings), but within that area it is exceptionally thorough; its limitations occur primarily in the field of semi-classical music: the Kurtz and Kostelanetz repertoire. I then stretched the time span in both directions, eventually repeating Smolian’s research. Naturally, we disagree on some information; nevertheless, his work served as lift-off, early guidance, and continuing role model for this project. In ix

addition, Smolian’s extensive research on early-twentieth-century recordings has been the source for my statements about 1898 and 1903 recordings. Many individuals have provided invaluable assistance. Michael H. Gray, the discographer’s guru, shared with me his database on New York Philharmonic recording sessions from 1917 to 1960. Gray contributed a great deal of information, in particular many of the venues for the Philharmonic’s Columbia recordings made prior to 1960, as taken from “Philharmonic matrix cards at Sony Music on 54th Street.” A few disagreements were worked out in further communication with Gray. Dennis D. Rooney, one of the most knowledgeable people in the world of recordings and unofficial historian for Columbia/CBS/Sony Classical, has offered advice and provided information. Sedgwick Clark, editor of Musical America, has, on that rare occasion when he didn’t know the answer, always known whom to ask. This discography was made larger and yet easier by Clark and the staff of the New York Philharmonic Archives: they produced vast numbers of Philharmonic recordings in massive annual historical compilations, which were always impeccably documented. Florian Conzetti of Amberson, Inc., made a detailed review of the more than five hundred entries involving Leonard Bernstein, correlating them with Amberson’s own discographic information. In conjunction with preparation of this discography, I have been attempting to fill in gaps in the Philharmonic Archives’s record collection. In the process, communication with several knowledgeable dealers in rare records has become an essential resource. Associate Professor (Retired) Richard A. Kaplan at the Louisiana State University School of Music is proprietor of K & S Classics; he has provided several treasures and has been a consistent, reliable source of information about 78s and LPs. The same may be said of Leslie Gerber, proprietor of Parnassus Records; both his exhaustive personal knowledge and his extensive database have been invaluable. David Canfield of the much-missed Ars Antiqua has also contributed information, and his valuable service www.classicalreference.com helped discover a few typos during proofreading. At Sony Classical, a division of Sony BMG Music Entertainment Inc., Warren Wernick has provided much helpful assistance. Erik Ryding and Ralph Hanes guided me through the historical records of recording sessions held on the sixteenth floor of the Sony building in New York City. Ryding, coauthor with Rebecca Pechevsky of a Bruno Walter biography, has traded, digested, reported, and corrected discographic information about that conductor. At the Irving S. Gilmore Music Library of Yale University, Suzanne Eggleston Lovejoy, Assistant Music Librarian for Public Services, enabled my study of The Goddard Lieberson Papers, MSS 69, and drew my attention to the photographs in The Frederick and Rose Plaut Papers, MSS 52, many of which document New York Philharmonic recording sessions. Richard Warren, Curator of the Historical Sound Recordings Collection at Yale University Library, kindly invited me to examine and listen to many of the Ginn & Company 78rpm discs. At Carnegie Hall, Archivist Gino Francesconi has stimulated thought with his exhibitions in the Rose Room and has contributed information relating

to the hall’s illustrious history. I have consulted earlier discographies, discussing sources with the compilers. I have traded information with Mr. David Lloyd Jones, Honorary Secretary of the Barbirolli Society in England, who is preparing a new edition of that organization’s discography. Nick Nickson, American research associate for Stathis Arfanis’s Mitropoulos discography, has been my oracle on matters pertaining to that conductor, as has English critic, writer, and editor Tully Potter on the Busch family. Composer Jack Gottlieb, formerly Leonard Bernstein’s assistant and editor, has been an unimpeachable source on the Philharmonic’s Conductor Laureate, both in conversation and through his writings. Other discographers who have assisted are J. F. Weber, Frank Forman, and Steven Reveyoso. Annual Victor and Columbia catalogues during the 78-rpm era, plus the latter’s monthly release pamphlets, have been read on microfilm at the New York Public Library and have been the source for most release dates during that era. For the existence of reissues I have not seen, I have relied on several publications: on the enduring (1949-2001) string of Schwann, later Schwann Opus, record catalogues and artist issues; on David Canfield’s Discographic Encyclopedia of Classical Composers and his Canfield Guide to Classical Recordings; and on other catalogues and encyclopedias identified in the bibliography. On discovery of a previously unknown issue, I have resorted to further record catalogues (Gramophone, Bielefelder, Diapason) and often to consultations with individual collectors to attempt verification. By the turn of the millennium, a new source appeared with widely inclusive listings: the Internet. In particular, I found the advanced-search feature within the classical department of towerrecords.com to be a reliable, accurate, and upto-date source on CDs in print. More recently, arkivmusic.com has become the leader in that field. Songfile.com has been useful for identifying composers of Christmas carols and of popular songs—especially those having Spanishlanguage titles. One contribution deserves special mention. Lawrence F. Holdridge is a leading collector and dealer in rare 78-rpm vocal records; when asked to provide an image of the 1916 reissue of the 1903 Damrosch recording, he also loaned me the actual record, a heart-warming display of trust and generosity. At Scarecrow Press, Bruce Phillips welcomed the idea of publishing this discography, and a host of editors contributed: Samuel Grammer, Kellie Hagan, Renée Camus, Adrianne Brigido, and Jayme Bartles, plus an expert but anonymous proofreader. Peggy Troupin of Class Act Inc. offered an elegant solution to a page-layout problem. Closer to home, Reinout E. Hunningher and Benjamin J. North eased me past innumerable, mostly self-inflicted computer glitches. Mr. Hunningher also suggested a winning title: Harry Potter and the New York Philharmonic. None of this would have been possible without the constant encouragement and support of my wife, Louise V. North, nor without her insightful critical advice and eagle-eyed editing and proofreading. For the reader to appreciate the depth of her forbearance, I need only note that our dining room table served as daily work space, season in, season out.
Introduction Photography had to wait a full century before it gained acceptance as one of the visual arts; well past its own centennial, phonography is still underappreciated. The phonograph filled an even greater cultural vacuum than the camera: We can see George Washington in Gilbert Stuart’s portraits as well as we can see Abraham Lincoln in Matthew Brady’s photographs, but we can not hear Liszt playing the piano or Mahler leading an orchestra. Thanks to recordings, Rachmaninoff, Caruso, and Toscanini will be forever available for all to hear. Composers understand the importance of recordings; by 1950 getting one’s music on disc had become more beneficial than having its score published. Records convey far more than just the music they contain. We hear the New York Philharmonic mature quickly from Stransky’s lazy, sloppy 1917 group into Mengelberg’s crack 1928 ensemble in Ein Heldenleben. A new subtlety and transparency are immediately apparent in the opening bars of Toscanini’s 1936 Beethoven Seventh. That performance is so well balanced, so sublime, that the crude technology of 1936 vanishes after the first minute. Bruno Walter’s warmth, Dimitri Mitropoulos’s passion, and Pierre Boulez’s perfectionism come through on records. The many facets of Leonard Bernstein are here: A vital energy transforms his Haydn, his Nielsen. He was an unrivalled teacher, which can cut both ways: We learn much from his records, but when we want to absorb a Brahms symphony, we hear instead “now listen as Brahms alters the mood for the second subject by modulating into . . .” It’s there in the grooves, almost as clearly as if he had spoken. One doesn’t have to read a dozen biographies to know Lenny; he put all of himself into his Philharmonic recording of Mahler’s “Resurrection” Symphony. Much the same is true of orchestral players: Oboist Harold Gomberg’s brilliant ease suggests the free spirit he was; Saul Goodman’s timpani demonstrate an aggressive personality tightly disciplined. To appreciate a recording, one must know of its existence then learn enough to find a copy. But a discography is more than just a catalogue: Knowing the time, place, and circumstances of recording sessions helps us understand the performance and often the music. Why is Bruno Walter’s Brahms Fourth Symphony so much more convincing than his Brahms First? The discography offers xiii

Introduction
a clue. Because the 1951 Fourth was such a success, Columbia wanted to publish a set of all the Brahms symphonies; unfortunately, it crowded the remaining three into the 1953 Christmas week. Three years had passed since Walter had led the First in concert; rehearsal time was tight, the season distracting. Some of the panache of Bernstein’s 1959 Shostakovich Fifth came from its having been performed for the composer in Leningrad eight weeks earlier, but more was due to the acoustics of Boston’s Symphony Hall, the only day the Philharmonic ever recorded there. Why can’t we listen to Boulez’s Janáček Sinfonietta with the Philharmonic? A discography should address such questions, illuminating recordings while chronicling their history and that of its subject. Advertisements by the firm Harms, Kaiser, and Hagen in the May 1898 issue of The Phonoscope claim that cylinders were made by the New York Symphony Orchestra, which would merge with the Philharmonic in 1928 to form the Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra of New York, but no further information has been uncovered (Smolian: Which Orchestra First When (1887-1925)?). One of the earliest documented recordings by an American symphony orchestra is the Prelude to Act I of Bizet’s Carmen, recorded in 1903 by “The Damrosch Orchestra,” which consisted of members of the New York Symphony. A gap in Columbia’s matrix-number sequence suggest that Damrosch made several more recordings at that time, but no trace of them has been found. Philharmonic recordings as we define them begin on January 20, 1917, with Josef Stransky leading Ambroise Thomas’s Raymond Overture. In December of 2004, today’s New York Philharmonic made the final recording listed in this discography, Dvořák’s Cello Concerto. While it is not always possible to define what is one recording and what is two (think Prelude and Liebestod), the Philharmonic has produced about 1,500 over the course of those years. The aims and specifications of this discography were worked out in conversation with Barbara Haws, Archivist/Historian of the New York Philharmonic. Only authorized recordings using the orchestra’s full title are included. Recordings by ensembles that would merge with the Philharmonic in the 1920s are identified by their own names: the New Symphony Orchestra (under Artur Bodanzky) and the New York Symphony Orchestra (under Walter Damrosch). The season before its merger, the New Symphony changed its name to the National Symphony Orchestra; Pathé acoustic recordings under that name are not included. In The Orchestra on Record, 1896-1926: An Encyclopedia of Orchestral Recordings Made by the Acoustical Process, Claude Graveley Arnold states that this was a Pathé house orchestra, not the Philharmonic’s similarly named predecessor. A 1931 Victor Record Catalog lists five records by the National Symphony Orchestra under Walter Damrosch; the record numbers indicate that they are electric recordings (post-1924), so this could not have been the Philharmonic’s forerunner. Some Decca and Everest recordings by the Stadium Symphony Orchestra of New York (from summer concerts at Lewisohn Stadium) include players from the New York Philharmonic, and some do not; none is listed here and neither are recordings by soloists or ensembles from the orchestra, even when they use the name (e.g., New York Philharmonic Brass Ensemble, on GC-

4003). On November 2, 1938, Fritz Reiner led the Philharmonic in four works, recorded by Victor for anonymous release in the “World’s Greatest Music” series, sold through newspapers. These are not official New York Philharmonic recordings; Michael H. Gray’s discography of the complete series appears in ARSC Journal 7, nos. 1 and 2 (1975). In general, only American issues are listed; we do include a few of international provenance that have been generally available in the United States—such as the Sony “Masterworks Portrait” series of compact discs. We also make exceptions to our American-only rule when we can find no American edition in a given medium (usually CD); in such cases we list foreign (English, French, Japanese, Greek) issues where known. We include all the American issues we could discover—through December 31, 2005; we do not, however, list reissues of piecemeal excerpts from a recording, unless they form an accepted concert work by themselves, such as the Suite No. 2 from Daphnis et Chloé. We define as complete a recording as the Philharmonic made it, be it a ninety-minute symphony or a three-minute excerpt from a suite. When a compendium includes both complete recordings and piecemeal excerpts, we list only each complete recording. A collection that includes no complete recording by the Philharmonic will not appear here. Again, there are exceptions: Bernstein’s recording of Handel’s Messiah was also divided into single LPs of the Christmas Music, the Easter Music, and a selection of highlights. Philharmonic recordings of suites from Handel’s Water Music and Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet ballet have been issued in various configurations; we have attempted to detail each release. A few authorized recordings that were made by commercial record companies but were not for sale to the general public are included, such as Jean Casadesus’s 1957 live performance of Beethoven’s Third Piano Concerto and some Andre Kostelanetz recordings discussed below. Some recordings were attributed to the New York Philharmonic in one issue and to the Columbia Symphony Orchestra in another. Columbia Records used that title both for independently contracted ensembles on both coasts and as a pseudonym for orchestras committed to other labels: the Cleveland Orchestra on Epic, the Boston Symphony on RCA. We have attempted to resolve such cases. Leonard Bernstein’s first recording of Rhapsody in Blue has often been credited to the New York Philharmonic, but it is an east-coast version of the Columbia Symphony Orchestra, even though it probably included musicians from the Philharmonic. When we are convinced that a performance is not by the Philharmonic, it does not appear. Another such case is Berlioz’s Nuits d’été, sung by Eleanor Steber and accompanied by Dimitri Mitropoulos leading the Columbia Symphony Orchestra; only a French CD set claims this to be the New York Philharmonic. Similarly, a 45-rpm record, Columbia A-1621, titled “Waltzes from Vienna” is listed in Columbia’s 1954 Extended Play catalogue as being by the New York Philharmonic, but other sources credit Andre Kostelanetz and “His Orchestra.” A British Sony CD credits the Philharmonic for three Strauss waltzes that are in fact Bruno Walter leading the Columbia Symphony. Another English Sony CD, SBK-89603, contains eleven songs sung by Beverly Sills; al-

Introduction
though all are so credited, only four of them are Philharmonic recordings. The recording of Prokofiev’s Third Piano Concerto conducted from the keyboard by Dimitri Mitropoulos is a live performance with the Stadium Symphony Orchestra, recorded at a Lewisohn Stadium summer concert. A New York Philharmonic / WQXR marathon-premium LP credited the Philharmonic but explained the circumstances in the album notes; thus we accept this recording as part of the canon. A similar exception is granted to Teresa Sterne’s recording of one movement from Rachmaninoff’s Second Piano Concerto. A few issues were commissioned by various organizations and corporations. Andre Kostelanetz recorded with the Philharmonic a suite of four pieces by Hovhaness, Creston, and Cowell for an Eastern Airlines promotional record produced by Columbia Special Products. Perhaps the most bizarre case is an LP, P-15441, produced in 1980 by CBS for J&B Scotch Whiskey. Titled “Jazz & Beethoven,” it includes two Beethoven overtures “electronically re-recorded to simulate stereo.” Both are listed as being played by the New York Philharmonic: One is Bruno Walter’s familiar 1954 Egmont; the other is Leonore No. 2. The latter, however, has been shown (by matrix numbers and by listening) to be Walter’s stereo recording with the Columbia Symphony Orchestra, so it is not included here. Another strange case involves the several issues of Leonard Bernstein conducting famous marches: Austrian composer Josef Franz Wagner’s Under the Double Eagle is properly identified in the original issue (M-30943), but it is credited to John Philip Sousa on a reissue (MG-35919); authorship then reverts to J. F. Wagner in the CD issue (SMK-63154). LP records of Kostelanetz-led performances often contain one, some, or many performances by the Philharmonic; for example, a recording of Chopin’s Polonaise, op. 40, no. 1, appears as the only New York Philharmonic selection in at least one Kostelanetz collection. Some Kostelanetz issues do not name any orchestra, not even “His Orchestra” (which often included players from the Philharmonic); we have attempted to identify those which are by the New York Philharmonic. We cannot hope to have tracked down all special issues made for commercial or promotional use. A case in point is a multi-LP set issued by the Walter W. Naumburg Foundation to celebrate several Naumburg Award-winning compositions. Four Philharmonic recordings—all also issued in the ML-4000 series—appeared therein: Mennin’s Third Symphony was given its ML-4902 number in this set, but the three others appeared with only an individual matrix number on each side: Lukas Foss’s Song of Songs (XTV 103130), George Rochberg’s Second Symphony (XTV 103129), and William Schuman’s Third Symphony (XTV 103132). Another oddball set was Columbia STEREO-1, a box of six early stereo LPs, three of which were by Mitropoulos and the New York Philharmonic. Each enclosed LP used the number of its original single issue (MS-6006, MS-6030 and MS-6044 for the Philharmonic ones). Unfortunately, we cannot present examples of issues we have not seen. We have tried to be inclusive for 78-rpm, 45-rpm, LP, and CD issues. Only two examples of Columbia’s brief trial with 7-inch, 33 1/3-rpm records (before they began issuing 45-rpm discs) have been discovered. Still another medium

was “Highway Hi-Fi,” record players intended for 1956 Chrysler automobiles; among those 16 2/3-rpm records were several by the New York Philharmonic, which are listed here. The many forms of audio tape are not included, except in one case where a cassette tape is the only published form of the recording: Zubin Mehta’s Brahms First Symphony (September 20, 1982). A few VHS video tapes, DVDs, and video discs qualify under the same conditions. During the 1970s, some LPs were issued in quadraphonic sound, as well as in stereo. In the new millennium, some older Philharmonic recordings are appearing on a new medium, Sony’s Super Audio Compact Disc, which requires its own special playing equipment. We include those we have seen; they appear at the end of the CD listings, with the prefix SS. In the main section of this discography, recordings are ordered chronologically by session dates; when a single recording took more than one day, it is listed under the date of the final session. The entry for a single recording includes as much of the following information as is pertinent and is known to us: COMPOSER Work (Timing) Orchestra and conductor Soloists and other artists Session date(s). Recording venue. Release date Record company, producer Matrix numbers and takes used Issue numbers on 78-rpm discs Issue numbers on LPs Issue numbers on Compact Discs Comments about the recording may be added in italics following these data.

a single disc. The June 26, 1993 concert in Central Park with Luciano Pavarotti is one example; another is a group of sixteen Christmas carols with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, recorded in September 1963. The structures of these entries vary slightly from that described above and from each other; we hope that each case will be clear without further explanation. Musical works are given formal titles in the main listing but may be abbreviated in the appendixes. Titles, which often follow neither rules nor logic, are given in the form and language(s) most commonly encountered in America: Thus Feste Romane but The Pines and The Fountains of Rome, Prelude and Liebestod. An attempt has been made to follow D. Kern Holoman’s Writing about Music: “Generic titles . . . are given in roman type . . . . True titles, i.e., those assigned by the composer, are given in italics.” We follow Holoman in putting song titles in italics but using roman type within quotation marks for opera arias. Numbers from Broadway musicals fall on that fence, whence we push them into italics. Brahms’s Variations on a Theme by Haydn remains a proper title, for reasons of historical continuity as well as its being assigned by the composer, even though we now know that Haydn did not write the theme. Similarly, Shostakovich’s “Leningrad” symphony keeps its subtitle even in today’s St. Petersburg. Haydn scholar H. C. Robbins Landon tells us that it was during a performance of Symphony No. 102 that the “Miracle” occurred—a falling chandelier injured no one—yet No. 96 refuses to cede its moniker. When a composer chooses an unconventional form for a title, that takes precedence over any rule. The 1917-1919 acoustic recordings led by Josef Stransky tended to be short pieces of popular music or classics in such arranged and abbreviated form that it is impossible to detail the cuts. The 1922-1924 Victor acoustics, under the leadership of Willem Mengelberg, however, are of accepted classical compositions, most of which are performed in their entirety. Single movements and a few abbreviated versions thereof are so identified. Orchestral performances for the acoustic horn were usually rescored to compensate for that technology’s limitations; since this was the rule rather than the exception, individual cases are not cited here. All recordings made through 1924 are acoustics, except the 1923 van Hoogstraten and 1924 Mengelberg performances in the orchestra’s 1997 set “The Historic Broadcasts 1923-1987.” All from October 6, 1925 onward are electrical. Recordings made prior to the LP era usually ignored exposition repeats in order to reduce the number of records in a set and thus its selling price. Mengelberg’s 1930 Beethoven First and Third Symphonies are striking exceptions; by contrast, his Telefunken recording of the “Eroica,” made in Amsterdam a decade later, eliminates repeats even in the Scherzo. Detailing the handling of every repeat is beyond the scope of this work. Timings are given in minutes and seconds; they are nevertheless approximations, as timings vary from one issue to another due to the pitches of different transfers or the length of pauses between movements. Timings listed in CD booklets are often in error, so they have been checked on a CD player. Similarly with LPs: listed timings have been checked by playing the record on a carefully calibrated turntable. Timings of acoustic 78s were taken at 78.3 rpm and recal-

culated to the appropriate speeds when known. For the early Stransky records, 82.3 rpm was chosen as a likely average that produced proper pitch. When alternate methods disagree by a few seconds, we tend to choose the larger figure, in the hope that readers who rely on such data will not find the music still playing when an allotted time span has elapsed. A few recordings have been released in more than one version, with repeats removed or sections cut. In these cases, both timings are given; for Sibelius’s Finlandia, (8:22 / 7:41) means that the LP lasts 8 minutes, 22 seconds, the CD 7 minutes, 41 seconds. Other pieces treated similarly are Alford’s Colonel Bogey March and several Johann Strauss Waltzes. “World premiere” following the timing indicates that this live performance was one of several given on the weekend of the first performance or that this studio recording was made immediately following such a premiere. In the 1940s and 1950s, the orchestra insisted that it be properly identified as the Philharmonic-Symphony Orchestra of New York, which name has generally been used when referring to that era. Although its corporate title is still the Philharmonic-Symphony Society of New York, Inc., the orchestra today is the New York Philharmonic, and it prefers to use that title for past eras as well. To conserve space, the orchestra is abbreviated NYP in most entries. Interested readers will note that several conductors who recorded in the monaural era have been poorly served by commercial CDs. The line between authorized issues and so-called pirates continues to blur: Societies devoted to Leopold Stokowski and to Sir John Barbirolli have issued virtually all of their Philharmonic recordings on CDs that have some claim to legitimacy, as they make use of Sony materials and employ Sony producers. Dimitri Mitropoulos has been equally well served by a fervent admirer; unfortunately his CDs remain outside our agreed-upon bounds, so we honor the Philharmonic’s wish not to promote pirate issues. We must also ignore unique CD issues of Guido Cantelli leading “The Four Seasons,” Oscar Levant playing Anton Rubinstein’s Piano Concerto, Mitropoulos’s “Missa solemnis” and Tod und Verklärung, plus several Rodzinski recordings. The verification of recording dates is a process amenable to analysis: For the 78-rpm era, sorting recording information by matrix number as well as by recording dates has revealed several flaws in previously available data—notably some Efrem Kurtz recordings—making further investigation necessary. Artur Rodzinski wrote to Goddard Lieberson (August 16, 1945): Recording has to be made as close as possible to the week in which the work to be recorded is played and rehearsed at our regular series . . . rather unusual numbers like Sibelius No. 4 . . . which if not recorded immediately are entirely forgotten by the orchestra. The best proof was last season the very easy Bizet Symphony which we had to postpone continuously because with every week it was more and more forgotten.
For many decades thereafter, New York Philharmonic recording sessions took place on the Monday immediately following the series of weekend concerts; the several exceptions were usually explained by Philharmonic performing history: The session day may have been changed because there was a Pension Fund

Introduction
Concert that Monday, or a tour began Monday, or the season (and thus the musician’s contracts) ended on Sunday. Recordings of choral music were often made on a Saturday, when members of the chorus were likely to be available. Recordings sessions for concertos were sometimes called to fit a soloist’s busy schedule. Note the thirty-month gap in Columbia sessions from June 15, 1942 to December 11, 1944. The American Federation of Musicians went on strike against all recording activities during that period (the infamous “Petrillo ban”). Concerts were still allowed, however, and the gap is now partially filled by recently issued live performances. Union rules for symphonic recording allowed no more than forty-five minutes of music from each three-hour session to appear on the finished record, and many recording dates consisted of both morning and afternoon sessions. Any number of recordings gestated over two or more days, in some cases years. We list all such dates when known, but it is often unclear whether extra sessions merely continued a composition or involved retakes of previous unsatisfactory efforts. We conceal our ignorance by ignoring the distinction. This discography orders recordings by the date of each one’s final session, even when this violates the matrix-number sequence; cross-references in the appendixes list only that final date. Recording locations are listed where known. All but a handful of New York Philharmonic recordings were made in New York City; specific sites are shown here chronologically, the dates being the span of years the Philharmonic recorded at each: “Columbia Studios” (1917-1919). A 1914 Manhattan phone book lists: “Columbia Graphaphone Co. Master Manufacturing Dept., 102 West 38th Street,” New York City Carnegie Hall, 154 West 57th Street (Dec. 17, 1923 to Jan. 8, 1978) Starr Piano Co. Recording Laboratories, 9 East 37th Street (ca. 1924-1926) The Ginn & Co. 78s Liederkranz Hall, 111 E. 58th Street (Dec. 12, 1925 to June 15, 1942, and on Dec. 13, 1947) Manhattan Opera House, 311 West 34th Street (June 1926). Later renamed Manhattan Center; see below Madison Square Garden, 50th Street at 8th Avenue (May 25 and Oct. 1, 1944) Columbia’s 30th Street Studios, 207 East 30th Street (Dec. 20, 1948 to Nov. 29, 1976) Lewisohn Stadium, 136th-138th Streets, Amsterdam and Convent Avenues (Aug. 7, 1946 and Aug. 9, 1949) Metropolitan Opera House, Broadway at 39th Street (December 10, 1950) Grand ballroom of the St. George Hotel, Henry and Clark Streets, Brooklyn, N.Y.

Philharmonic Hall, Lincoln Center, Broadway at 65th Street. (May 29, 1962 to Feb. 6, 1973). Renamed Avery Fisher Hall. See next entry Avery Fisher Hall, Lincoln Center, Broadway at 65th Street (Feb. 11, 1974 to December 6, 2004) RCA Studio A, 110 West 44th Street (Sep. 30, 1985) American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters Auditorium, 633 West 155th Street (Nov. 27, 1989) Central Park: The Great Lawn (June 26, 1993) Right Track Studio, 509 West 38th Street (June 28, 29, 30, 2004) One site lies a few miles north of the city: Performing Arts Center, State University of New York at Purchase (Oct. 21, 1985). The 1922 acoustics were recorded in New York City; in 1923, the operation moved to Camden, New Jersey, home of the Victor Company and its manufacturing plant. Victor then purchased Trinity Church, 114 North Fifth Street, Camden, and turned it into a recording studio; we are not certain if the 1924 acoustics were made there. More distant recording sites have been: Maison de la Mutualité, Paris (September 19, 1955) Symphony Hall, Boston (October 20, 1959) Salt Lake Tabernacle, Salt Lake City, Utah (September 3, 4, 1963) Sydney Opera House, Sydney, Australia (August 22, 23, 1974) Philharmonie, Berlin (September 8, 1975) Royal Albert Hall, London (June 3, 1976) Bunka Kaikan, Tokyo (July 2, 3, 1979) NHK Hall, Tokyo (July 6, 1979) Special note must be made of the distinction between studio and live performance recordings. Except for New York Philharmonic broadcasts published by the orchestra as marathon premiums or historical sets, few of these recordings are truly live performances. Beginning in 1985 with Leonard Bernstein’s series for Deutsche Grammophon, many recordings (including most of Kurt Masur’s) were edited from two or three live performances, often with the addition of a patch session without an audience. In such cases, it is impossible to quantify just how much of the issued recording is a live performance. Nevertheless, we write “Avery Fisher Hall (live)” for them, with the understanding of those conditions. The date listed is the final concert of the series (usually a Tuesday), unless we have contrary information from other sources. It is common for discographies to include dates of release and deletion for each issue. Multiple sources can disagree; assigned release dates often were not met, for many reasons, some pushed forward as well as back. Dates reported after the fact may indicate merely when a catalogue caught up with the recording. Library of Congress catalogue numbers can be a year too early, as can corporate copyright dates. To retain information but minimize inaccuracies, we list only the year of initial release. This compromise does lose track of one curious minu-

Introduction
tia of recording history: a few recordings, ca.1948 and 1949, were issued on LP before they appeared on 78s. Leopold Stokowski’s Francesca da Rimini and Bruno Walter’s 1949 “Eroica” come first to mind. Deletion dates offer an even more slippery slope, which we do not attempt to scale. The Philharmonic’s relations with record companies have varied widely. The Brunswick-Balke-Collender Co. not only bungled its one large recording project (Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony, December 28, 1927) but failed to pay agreed-upon royalties. Victor, Columbia, and Sonora vied for a new Philharmonic contract, offering remarkably similar terms. The Philharmonic signed with Victor on December 1, 1928, and that company wasted no time, recording Ein Heldenleben within two weeks. Eventually, three factors soured that relationship: Toscanini’s dislike of recordings, the Great Depression, and the poor sales of Barbirolli records. The newly formed Columbia Records grabbed the Philharmonic in 1940; it too began with a bang, recording Le Sacre de printemps led by Stravinsky in its second week. Goddard Lieberson soon took over Columbia, and the relationship prospered for more than four decades. Long-term recording contracts petered out for all major American orchestras in the 1980s. From 1983 to 1991, each Philharmonic recording or connected series of recordings was individually contracted. New World Records recorded thirteen American works with the Philharmonic in that era. Often a soloist’s contract would prevail: Itzhak Perlman with Deutsche Grammophon, Midori or Plácido Domingo with CBS, Luciano Pavarotti with Decca/London. Conductors too brought their labels along, most notably Deutsche Grammophon for twentyseven Bernstein live performances and Giuseppe Sinopoli for seventeen studio recordings. Zubin Mehta recorded for six different companies: RCA, CBS, Teldec, New World, Decca/London, and Deutsche Grammophon. Stability returned with the arrival of Kurt Masur, whose appointment as Music Director led to a new contract with Teldec International, which was to produce sixty-seven recordings from 1991 to 1999. We use the term producer to refer to the on-site manager in charge of a session, rather than the European meaning of an executive back at headquarters. In the 78-rpm era, the producer was usually the Director of Artists and Repertory. For Victor this was Charles O’Connell, for Columbia Goddard Lieberson. Dennis Rooney has stated, in a private conversation, that Moses Smith was hired by Edward Wallerstein in 1939 to be classical producer and that he produced the Stravinsky sessions in 1940. Igor Stravinsky wrote in 1961: “Goddard Lieberson is responsible for my whole recording career in the United States, since it was he who convinced me to record The Rite of Spring in 1940.” At the time, Lieberson was Smith’s assistant, learning the trade. Lieberson produced the majority of New York Philharmonic recordings during the 1940s, David Oppenheim and Howard H. Scott many in the 1950s. The producer for each session was seldom noted during that era; we identify him or her when we are able. In the case of historical live performances issued by the New York Philharmonic, the producers were not associated with the original performances. Matrix numbers are given for recordings made through February 8, 1951,

the final Philharmonic recordings to be published on 78-rpm discs. Take numbers are given when known; one caveat is that they may vary from one issue to another of the same recording, even from one copy of a record to another within the same issue; in such cases we may have encountered only one and not even be aware that another exists. Nevertheless, we include take numbers as we know them, because they are useful in a variety of ways. For Toscanini’s Beethoven Seventh and Mengelberg’s Ein Heldenleben, multiple issues using different takes produce notable musical differences. Recording for Victor, Mengelberg and Toscanini could choose among several takes; Columbia’s consistent first takes suggest a company policy relaxed only for distinguished soloists, but it is also true that recording attempts that were immediately recognized as unsatisfactory for technical or musical reasons were not preserved with a take number. Record companies have been inconsistent in their use of the hyphen: is it V567 or V 567? For general legibility among the many forms of record numbers, we always use a hyphen to separate prefix and number: MS-6500, MH2K62759, set V-358. We also include the blank spaces within numbers, typically on Deutsche Grammophon: 429 785-2. The -2 suffix denotes a CD format; a -1 represents an LP. Multiple issues are separated by commas. A discussion of Columbia’s labeling conventions is in order so that explanations do not have to be made for each issue. The system for 78s is quite straightforward: from 1940, each single record was given a five-digit number followed by -D. Among New York Philharmonic records, twelve-inch discs ran from 11261-D to 13183-D; ten-inch discs from 19003-D to 19012-D. If a record was sold in an album set, the album got its own identification: an X- prefix for twodisc sets in manual sequence, MX- for automatic. Sets of more than two discs used a prefix of M- for manual sequence, MM- for automatic. Because the pair of sets would not have matching sides (the first record in a manual-sequence 3disc album would be sides 1 and 2; in automatic, sides 1 and 6), records in automatic-sequence sets had different numbers from those in manual sets. It was common for the numbers of automatic-sequence records to follow directly after those in manual sequence. For example, the Rodzinski recording of Prokofiev’s Fifth Symphony: Manual: records 12485-D through 12489-D in set M-661 Automatic: records 12490-D through 12495-D in set MM-661 In addition, at least one set, the December 13, 1947 Grieg Piano Concerto, was also issued on vinyl 78-rpm discs. Note that the numbers for the vinyl discs bear no relation to those of the shellacs: Manual Shellac: Automatic Shellac: Manual Vinyl: Automatic Vinyl:
12788-D through 12791-D in set M-741 12792-D through 12795-D in set MM-741 3007-V through 3010-V in set MV-741 3011-V through 3014-V in set MMV-741

Introduction
For the initial (monaural) Lps, ML-4001 denoted twelve-inch records, while ML-2001 was for the short-lived ten-inch series. Note that “LP” is a generic abbreviation for “Long Playing,” whereas “Lp” was a Columbia trademark. The equally brief AL (sometimes AAL) series was for low-priced ten-inch Lps with shorter running times. Eventually, the MLs ran over into ML-5000 and ML6000. A few reissues added a 5 before the 4000: ML-54000. When stereo records appeared in 1958, a new series began at MS-6001; from 1958 to 1967, every new issue appeared in both mono and stereo, with identical musical content; for the single exception among New York Philharmonic recordings, see Skalkottas (January 9, 1956). At first the mono and stereo numbers were independent, but Columbia soon established a system whereby the stereo number was six hundred higher than the mono: MS-6170 / ML-5570. After six hundred issues, this became even more confusing, as mono and stereo numbers overlapped. The most damnable case is that MS-6218 is the stereo Lp of Bruno Walter’s Schubert “Unfinished” Symphony, while ML-6218 is the monaural Lp of Leonard Bernstein’s recording. The Philharmonic discography is full of such addling coincidences: Bernstein recorded William Schuman’s Third Symphony and Robert Schumann’s Third Symphony on the same day; Kurt Masur and Helen Huang recorded Mendelssohn’s First Piano Concerto and his Capriccio brillant on October 1st—one year apart. The prefix KS- is for Columbia records with special packaging, often using double-fold albums for a single LP; they sold at a dollar premium. A few records from the ML- series were reissued by Columbia Special Products “for collectors” with a CML- or AML- prefix and the original number. Some Philharmonic recordings, primarily those led by Andre Kostelanetz, were issued with CL- (monaural) and CS- (stereo) prefixes, a popular-music series that sold for a dollar less. Our addition of an “e” to the end of a record number denotes a monaural recording electronically reprocessed to simulate stereo (e.g., the 1942 Gershwin Concerto in F, later issued as CS-8641e). At first, multiple-record sets used the prefix SL; because they were often issued both in a double-fold cardboard sleeve and as a pair of single discs, both identifications are listed: SL-105 (ML-4244/45). Later multiple-LP sets have designations that are at least suggestive: prefixes M2L- and M3S- imply, respectively, a two-record monaural set and a three-record stereo one. When they were not available as single records, only set numbers are listed. Identifications shown on the labels take precedence: a three-LP collection Bernstein Conducts Favorite Light Classics is identified as M3X-31068 on each label and in the notes, but the spine of the box reads D3M31068; we list it as M3X. Low-priced reissues used the labels Harmony (HL7000), Entré (RL-3000, RL-6000), and Odyssey (Y-30000 and 32-16-0000). By 1970, the MS- series reached MS-7528 and was replaced by a new M30001 series, using M2 and M3 prefixes for multiple-record sets; by that time all new issues were produced only in stereo. The aforementioned quadraphonic issues are in this series, running through the mid-1970s. Two-record double-fold albums were labeled MG-30000. Columbia was inconsistent in labeling the quadraphonic issues of that era, sometimes issuing both a stereo (M-30000) and
Introduction
xxv
a quad (MQ-30000) LP, sometimes just an M-30000 that was in fact quadraphonic. We distinguish between these two cases: in the former, listing both the M- and MQ- prefixes, in the latter, merely M-30000(Q). In 1978, Columbia assumed the name of its parent company CBS, and Philharmonic records beginning with M-35837 feature a “CBS Masterworks” logo. Digital recordings began in 1979, and CBS used a new prefix IM- to designate them; digitally remastered issues, however, kept the M- prefix. A series of 100 inexpensive reissues called “Great Performances” was labeled MY-30000. CBS compact discs started with MK-30001; the MY series of LPs appeared in identical compilations with identical numbers, now prefixed MYK. MBK was used for the low-price Odyssey line. The Sony Corporation acquired CBS in 1988, and its Sony Classical division began operations in 1989. The MK main line of CBS Masterworks CDs became Sony Classical SK, multi-disc sets being S2K, etc. SMK, SLK, SFK, and SBK (“Sony Essential Classics”) are progressively less-expensive series. Sony kept the CBS Masterworks logo for some issues, with prefixes such as MDK (“CBS Masterworks Digital Masters”) and MLK; it also used MHK prefixes for the Sony Masterworks Heritage Series, reissues of classic Columbia recordings. Sony Super Audio CDs use the prefix SS. Note that recordings were often made under one company name and issued under another; a Columbia recording made in 1978 would be labeled CBS if issued in 1981, Sony when reissued in 1994. The company making the initial recording is listed; when records appear on a different label, that company is also identified. The sequence Columbia, Harmony, Entré, Odyssey, CBS, Sony is implied by prefixes; Victor, RCA, Camden, and Victrola are specified for each issue. Leonard Bernstein’s unpublished Columbia recordings were discussed with Erik Ryding (and through him, with Warren Wernick) in March of 2000. There are six: Borodin’s Notturno, Haydn’s Symphonies Nos. 102 and 104, Ravel’s Tzigane (Boris Belkin), Schumann’s Piano Concerto (Murray Perahia), and Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto (Belkin). All were rejected by either artists or engineers. The Haydn “London” Symphony, the Schumann “Spring” Symphony and Shostakovich’s Fifth were recorded in Tokyo by Bernstein’s own company, Amberson, Inc. The Shostakovich was issued by CBS and Sony on LP and CD, the Schumann appears only on a Kultur VHS videotape and DVD (with the Shostakovich), and the Haydn remains unissued. The first three appendixes offer alphabetical listings of composers, conductors, and soloists; each entry contains the minimum information needed to reference the main listing (by date). Two categories of New York Philharmonic recordings are dealt with separately. Appendix D treats the 1924-1926 “Music Appreciation” recordings with “Members of the New York Philharmonic, conducted by Henry Hadley.” These form a most curious collection: Intended for educational purposes, it includes many works by composers unknown today (e.g., Helen S. Leavitt), yet Beethoven is represented only by a piano-trio arrangement of a single sonata movement. Few are in fact orchestral recordings: instrumental solos, duets, and trios predominate; there are songs and a few opera arias as well. Many are abbreviated versions; we have not heard every one. Al-

though our account of them is incomplete, we offer it because other sources are even more fragmentary. Appendix E covers video releases of twenty-five Young People’s Concerts led by Leonard Bernstein. The New York Philharmonic also made recordings for which it was duly paid and that were noted in the orchestra’s personnel files, but for which the orchestra’s name was not to be used. On November 20 and 26, 1975, it recorded Deems Taylor’s Through the Looking Glass for CBS, at the 30th Street Studios, with Andre Kostelantez conducting. The recording may never have been issued, but notes to the session say “nonPhilharmonic recording.” Similarly, Erich Leinsdorf led members of the Philharmonic accompanying bass Salvatore Baccaloni in four Mozart and Rossini arias on February 6, 1941, in Liederkranz Hall. On RCA, “Leopold Stokowski and His Orchestra” usually meant the Philharmonic. Such recordings are not a part of this discography. An interesting sidelight is recordings that the New York Philharmonic did not make. On January 27, 1975, Pierre Boulez was scheduled to record Janáček’s Sinfonietta with the Philharmonic at Manhattan Center, with Andrew Kazdin as producer. The orchestra’s personnel manager reported: “session cancelled due to unsatisfactory working conditions.” During the morning session, the musicians complained of the cold; it was found to be 58° F, but they agreed to complete the session, recording portions of Stravinsky’s Song of the Nightingale. When they returned for the afternoon session the temperature had risen only two degrees, and they voted sixty / forty-eight not to participate; the Sinfonietta recording was never rescheduled. Another session that the players rejected was to be a recording for Grenadilla Records, on March 26, 1979, in RCA Studio A. The players voted by secret ballot to approve the proposition “In view of the exploitation of the recording date of the Persichetti English Horn Concerto we urge our colleagues and personnel manager not to participate in this recording.” A recording did appear on LP, featuring the Philharmonic’s English hornist Thomas Stacy with unidentified accompaniment. Another phantom Philharmonic recording was the Prelude to Act III of Die Meistersinger; its appearance in Sony’s files has been shown to have been a mistake made during the session for the Act I Prelude (Warren Wernick, in conversation, November 22, 2004). A claimed Toscanini recording of Brahms’s Variations on a Theme by Haydn on Pearl GEMM CDS 9922 has been shown to be by another orchestra. Many scheduled recording sessions never materialized, for a variety of reasons. The Philharmonic was to record Tchaikovsky’s Fourth Symphony (and remake the failed 1927 Fifth) for Brunswick in 1928 or 1929, along with Romeo and Juliet, Les Préludes, and Finlandia, all under Mengelberg. If time was left over, Brunswick wanted to record Dohnanyi’s op. 10 Suite, the Sibelius Fourth Symphony, and Daphnis et Chloé (presumably the Second Suite). These ambitious plans came to nought when the Philharmonic severed relations with Brunswick for under-payment of royalties. Victor planned to record Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony following Mengelberg performances on December 12 and 13, 1929. We can find no evidence of why that was dropped; the financial crisis fol-

lowing the October stock market crash may have played a part. An important recording the Philharmonic almost made was reported by the late Mahler authority Jack Diether in conversation with Jerome F. Weber (Weber, email to the author, December 31, 2005): Victor scheduled a recording of Das Lied von der Erde for early 1929, with Mengelberg leading the Philharmonic, Margaret Matzenauer, and Richard Crooks. Although performances took place on January 3rd and 4th, Matzenauer became ill before the recording sessions. The recording was rescheduled for the following season; two more performances by the same artists took place on January 16 and 17, 1930, but those sessions were also cancelled. The New York Philharmonic has often played music for the movies, starting with the background soundtrack for John Barrymore’s 1926 silent film Don Juan, Henry Hadley conducting. He also led the Philharmonic in a filmed recording of Wagner’s Tannhäuser Overture, which was shown as a short feature at the Don Juan premiere on August 6, 1926. The two recordings were made by a new process, trade-named Vitaphone, for Warner Bros. Pictures, Inc. Digital video transfers of both are included in a set of two video discs released in 1991 by Turner MGM/UA Home Video. Artur Rubinstein played an eight-minute Piano Concerto by Leith Stevens in the 1947 Night Song, accompanied by the Philharmonic under Eugene Ormandy. The Philharmonic played several works in the 1947 film Carnegie Hall; a Columbia Lp of vocal excerpts, ML-2113, does not include anything by the orchestra, but VHS and DVD video releases of the film earn it a place here. In 1971 the pianist Glenn Gould led musicians from the orchestra in two Bach concerto movements for the film Slaughterhouse Five, but that was not a Philharmonic recording. The Gershwin music for Woody Allen’s 1979 Manhattan was also released on LP; the Philharmonic’s contributions are detailed in the main section of this discography. Beginning in 1954, the orchestra appeared often on television, most memorably in Leonard Bernstein’s many Young People’s Concerts for CBS; those published on VHS and DVD are catalogued in Appendix E. More recent appearances on such PBS series as Live from Lincoln Center and Great Performances, as well as radio broadcasts from 1922 to the present, performances at the Roxy movie theater, and the Concerts in the Parks demand their own chronicles. Several areas offer challenges that have been only partially met; in particular, the many “bonus” records issued to members of the Columbia Record Club. The “Greatest Hits” series—on Columbia, CBS, Sony, and Deutsche Grammophon—are a discographer’s nightmare: they mix recordings by different ensembles, they do not always identify the performers for each selection, they include both complete recordings and bleeding chunks, and they are inconsistent from one issue to another. Errors occur on record covers, in CD booklets, and in record catalogues; we have attempted to recognize all such cases and give what we believe to be correct identifications, sometimes explaining the reasons for our decisions. Of course, errors also occur in discographies; we have questioned statements in previous ones, and we have discussed many cases with the authors or editors thereof. There are sure to be errors and omissions here as well; we will be most

LYS 138 The misreading of a single Columbia fact sheet (now in Sony’s archives) led to incorrect dating of all Philharmonic recordings in the spring of 1940, including some when Barbirolli was known to be in California. Those erroneous dates have persisted over decades of record issues—including the Dutton and Andante CDs—and discographic listings. The dates on that sheet are for “re-recording,” a further step in the process, not for orchestra recording sessions. The correct dates, taken from the orchestra personnel manager’s hand-written weekly reports, are listed here.

MOZART, WOLFGANG AMADEUS Concerto for Horn and Orchestra No. 3 in E-flat, K. 447 (arr. for cello in B-flat by Gaspar Cassadó) NYP, conductor John Barbirolli Joseph Schuster, cello December 16, 1940. Liederkranz Hall. Not released Columbia Records, producer Moses Smith Matrix: XCO-29456-59 A gap in Columbia’s matrix numbers during this recording session suggests an unknown recording. A pencilled note on the reverse of the Columbia session report reads: “If Barbirolli transcrip. of Mozart Horn concerto for cello is released, notify Wm R Davis, RFD 1 Box 122A Carmel, Cal.” Concert programs of that week show that such a concerto was performed the day before the recording session in question, except that the transcription for cello was made by Gaspar Cassadó. His transcription also changed the key from Eflat to B-flat and altered the orchestration, both to benefit the solo cello.

BRAHMS, JOHANNES Symphony No. 2 in D, op. 73 (40:31) NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein May 29, 1962. Philharmonic Hall. Released 1962 Columbia Records, producer John McClure LPs: MS-6374, ML-5774, D3M-32097 CDs: SMK-47537, SMK-61829 This recording was made four months before Philharmonic Hall opened, when the orchestra was assisting with acoustical tuning of the hall. The first LP was titled “The Sound of Lincoln Center.” Producer John McClure wrote in the program notes to the LP: “Partial occupancy of Philharmonic Hall consisted of 1200 glass fiber mats, each 30” x 40” x 1”, folded into a large V and placed in the . . . seats. These ‘instant people’ could not applaud— but neither could they cough.” SMITH, JOHN STAFFORD The Star-Spangled Banner (1:33) NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein September 23, 1962. Philharmonic Hall (live). Released 1962 Columbia Records, producer John McClure LPs: L2S-1008, L2L-1007 The opening concert was recorded in its entirety and issued in a 2-LP box called “First Peformance: Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts.” It contains 38 pages of articles and photographs of the event, complete vocal texts, and seven unrealized designs for such musical centers, beginning in 1922.

Appendix D: Ginn & Company 78s
In the 1920s, a Boston educational publisher, Ginn & Company, created “a complete course for music education for the elementary schools of America.” Its textbook was Music Appreciation in the Schoolroom, by Thaddeus P. Giddings, Will Earhart, and Ralph L. Baldwin. It describes 120 record sides made by thirty-eight members of the New York Philharmonic under assistant conductor Henry Hadley. These records include many sides that may be of greater educational than musical value, and less than half of the performances are orchestral, so they are not included in the main section of this discography. The records are rare today; partial collections exist at the New York Philharmonic Archives, at the Yale Collection of Historical Sound Recordings at Yale University’s Gilmore Music Library, and at the Library of Congress. Other important sources of information are Arnold’s book cited above, an article about the Ginn & Company 78s by Alan Sutton in the online journal The Mainspring, and Howard Shanet’s brief discussion in his Philharmonic: A History of New York’s Orchestra. The initial acoustic discs were recorded at the Starr Piano Company recording laboratories in New York by Gennett Records of Richmond, Indiana. Ginn was dissatisfied with the results, and later pressings were made by the “Columbia Phonograph Company, Inc, New York, U.S.A.” Many of the discs were later re-recorded electrically by Columbia and reissued with the same record numbers, but on many there are changes in the musical content, on one or both sides. A few remade sides were even issued with different record numbers, and there was occasionally a new soloist for the same work. Most of the electrics identify instrumental soloists, whereas the acoustics usually do not. The series includes both ten-inch and twelve-inch records. Generally—this is an oversimplification—the ten-inch records make didactic points, while the twelve-inch ones present musical pieces, including a few complete works, although many are abridged. Some of the acoustics have matrix numbers etched on the surface; the electrics do not. As one would expect, the electric recordings are often a great improvement on the acoustics, but the results are variable within each technique. A few of the Columbia electrics are of surprisingly fine sound, considering their 413

early provenance. The records come in four different label colors: red, green, blue, and brown, all with gold lettering; each color corresponds to a chapter in the text. Program notes and instructions for the teacher, all taken from the textbook, appear on the paper sleeve for each record. The existence of a few Royal Blue shellac Columbia pressings indicates that the series was still being marketed as late as December 1932 (Sutton 2001). The following incomplete list summarizes the information known; corrections and additions will be welcomed. Performances are by an orchestra of thirty-eight players—a full complement of winds but only fourteen strings— except where noted. All the instrumental and vocal solos have piano accompaniment by D. Lieberfeld unless otherwise specified; Helen Clark is the soprano in the children’s songs. Matrix numbers 8680 to 9553 are ten-inch records; 6807 to 6907 are twelve-inch; the notation 9232a/b is used where multiple published takes are known. Few recording dates are known, covering 1924 through 1926; but the existence of both acoustics and electrics confuses the issue, as the date that Columbia switched over has not been established. Records have been examined and auditioned at the Philharmonic Archives and at Yale. The Ginn book suggests a turntable speed of 78-rpm; timings taken at 78.3 rpm are included for each side or selection that we have been able to hear. Where there is more than one band per side, the bands do not connect, so the needle must be lifted manually from the end of one band to the start of the next. In such cases, timings are given for each band Regular-font entries are acoustic recordings; entries in italics are electrical recordings. In some cases, for example, G26, records have been pressed with an acoustic recording on one side and an electric on the other. Also note G38, which has appeared in at least three different versions. Most of the dates listed are estimates, extrapolated from Arnold’s work and from information privately communicated by Michael H. Gray.

Appendix E: Young People’s Concerts
The New York Philharmonic Young People’s Concerts are a tradition stretching back to Josef Stransky in 1913, but they were brought to fruition by Ernest Schelling, beginning on January 26, 1924. Usually led by an Assistant (or Associate) Conductor—Schelling (1924-1939), Rudolf Ganz (1940-1947), Walter Hendl (1947-1949), Igor Buketoff (1950-1953), Franco Autori (1950-1958), and Wilfrid Pelletier (1953-1957)—they were occasionally directed by a Principal Conductor or by a distinguished guest. In 1957, Leonard Bernstein was appointed Musical Director of the Young People’s Concerts. He led fifty-three of them, from 1958 to 1971, writing the scripts for each. Broadcast by CBS Television, they were a nationwide success, winning Emmy, Peabody, and Edison awards. For the original live broadcasts, stage hands and technicians would arrive as early as midnight; Bernstein came about five. A complete run-through began at 11:00 AM, and the concerts aired at noon. Bernstein published twenty-five of his scripts in book form, and in 1997 Sony released those programs on a set of ten VHS tapes; in 2004 they appeared on nine DVDs issued by Kultur Video. All were televised in Carnegie Hall and, from November 3, 1962, Philharmonic Hall. Early ones are in black and white; beginning on November 23, 1966, they are in color. Stereo television did not arrive until 1969. For the delayed broadcasts, both dates are listed. Producer Roger Englander directed all but the initial program. The music played consists primarily of excerpts. Few works are played in their entirety, even when Bernstein implies as much: Ravel’s La Valse, which closes the first program, may sound a coherent whole, but a quarter of the piece is missing. Furthermore, some complete performances have a running narration, either between movements (La Mer, Pétrouchka, Shostakovich’s Ninth Symphony, Swan Lake, Firebird) or over the music (Boléro). When a complete work is played, it is listed with its composer, its timing is given (excluding any spoken interruptions), and it is referenced in the composer and conductor appendixes. When a substantial section of a work is played, such as a movement of a symphony or a suite, only the composer is listed, and no cross-references are made.

Young People’s Concerts
Because these programs are available only as a nine-DVD set, and because their content is so different from that of a typical recording, some descriptive and critical comments (adapted from my article “Leonard Bernstein’s Young People’s Concerts on DVD” in Fanfare (North 62-67) have been added for each program. A detailed synopsis of each program is given in the twenty-page booklet that comes with the DVD set. WHAT DOES MUSIC MEAN? (Black & White. Monaural. 59:00) Rossini. Richard Strauss. Beethoven. Mussorgsky. Tchaikovsky. Webern. Ravel NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein January 18, 1958. Carnegie Hall (live). Directed by Charles S. Dubin VHS: Sony SHV 57428, SHV 57438. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 1 Bernstein’s point is that music is not about anything but music: The William Tell Overture is not about the Lone Ranger, or even about Willliam Tell—it is just about music, its melodies and rhythms making it interesting and exciting. Music may have a story associated with it (but that’s extra, “like mustard on your hot dog”): Don Quixote, the “Pastoral” Symphony, Pictures at an Exhibition. Or music may try to express emotions: Tchaikovsky’s Fourth and Fifth Symphonies. This first script is loosely organized, as if he hadn’t had time to think it through. He got the hang of it quickly, and the scripts get tighter program by program. WHAT IS A MERICAN MUSIC? (Black & White. Monaural. 58:48) Gershwin. Chadwick. Dvořák. MacDowell. Gilbert. Schuman. Harris. Virgil Thomson. Randall Thompson. Copland NYP, conductors Leonard Bernstein and Aaron Copland February 1, 1958. Carnegie Hall (live). VHS: Sony SHV 57431. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 1 An American in Paris sounds American, but why? Bernstein plays music intended to be American but not sounding it—Chadwick’s Melpomene Overture, the “New World” Symphony, MacDowell’s Indian Suite. He calls 1920s jazz the first universally American music, going from St. Louis Blues to Copland‘s Music for the Theatre to Rhapsody in Blue. William Schuman’s American Festival Overture, Roy Harris’s Third Symphony, Billy the Kid, Virgil Thomson’s The Mother of Us All, and Randall Thompson’s Second Symphony are sampled. Bernstein gets all the kids in the audience to participate in a demonstration of syncopation. He then introduces Aaron Copland, “the dean of American music,” to conduct the finale of his Third Symphony. Copland, fifty-eight at the time, begins cautiously, but the Philharmonic plays the hell out of his music, so he is soon reveling in it, letting loose on the podium just like his young friend Lenny.

WHAT IS ORCHESTRATION? (Black & White. Monaural. 58:08) Rimsky-Korsakov. Debussy. Gershwin. Bach. Prokofiev. Hindemith. Mozart. Ward. Beethoven. Schubert. Vaughan Williams. William Schuman. Gabrieli. Sousa. Saul Goodman. Stravinsky. RAVEL Boléro (12:40) NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein March 8, 1958. Carnegie Hall (live). VHS: Sony SHV 57428. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 1 What Is Orchestration? finds Bernstein with a hacking cough, so bad that he has to stop for long periods in the middle of sentences. Even so, blurry video and all, the program is revealing: He gets the kids to join in: “everybody upstairs sing this note . . . everbody downstairs . . . .” They eat it up, participating to the hilt, laughing and smiling. Not only that, but he chides them for not being together, and with a few brief gestures gets them to do it ever-so-much better. Talk about rehearsal efficiency! The program begins with a detailed analysis of Capriccio espagnol. Bernstein then examines each section of the orchestra, instrument by instrument and in increasing combinations: a solo clarinet from Peter and the Wolf, Hindemith’s Kleine Kammermusik for wind quintet, Mozart’s Serenade for Thirteen Winds. A dozen more works are sampled as he goes through the orchestra, leading up to Boléro. WHAT MAKES MUSIC SYMPHONIC? (Black & White. Monaural. 59:15) Mozart. Tchaikovsky. Alford. Beethoven. Gershwin. Mozart. Brahms NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein December 13, 1958. Carnegie Hall (live). VHS: Sony SHV 57429. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 2 What Makes Music Symphonic? focuses on development; Bernstein delves into sequences and augmentation, which might seem too technical, too esoteric, for his young audience. His half-hearted Elvis Presley imitation leaves them cold. The video quality is slowly getting better, the sound now less harsh. Bernstein’s performances are as marvelous, and as exasperating, as ever: Playing the finales of three symphonies, he delivers a surprisingly beautiful “Jupiter” and a predictably exciting Tchaikovsky Fourth but then slaughters Brahms’s Second.

WHAT IS C LASSICAL MUSIC? (Black & White. Monaural. 58:55) Handel. MOZART: Le Nozze di Figaro: Overture (3:42). Haydn. Chopin. Schumann. BEETHOVEN Egmont: Overture (7:54) NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein January 24, 1959. Carnegie Hall (live). VHS: Sony SHV 57429. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 2 Bernstein tells us that “classical” is the wrong word to describe “long-haired music,” which could better be called “exact” music—music that must be played exactly as the composer wrote it. He is fully at ease now, rolling along, exaggerating everything; he gets even the blasé Philharmonic players to roar with laughter as he imitates Louis Armstrong singing I can’t give you anything but love. Classical means music of a given era, basically the eighteenth century, which follows strict rules of composition. Water Music, the Fourth Brandenburg Concerto, Mozart’s C-Major Piano Concerto K. 467, and Haydn’s Symphony No. 102 are sampled. Bernstein introduces Chopin and Schumann to show what would replace Classicism, and closes with Egmont. HUMOR IN MUSIC (Black & White. Monaural. 59:12) Piston, White. Gershwin. Kodály. Sullivan. Rameau. Haydn. Prokofiev. Mahler. Wagner, Richard Strauss. Mozart. SHOSTAKOVICH The Golden Age: Polka (2:12). Copland. Dukas. Brahms NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein February 28, 1959. Carnegie Hall (live). VHS: Sony SHV 57430. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 2 Haydn’s Symphony No. 88 is followed by two movements from Prokofiev’s Classical; then we veer to Mahler’s minor-key “Frère Jacques.” The opening of Der Rosenkavalier is shown to be a parody of Tristan. Shostakovich’s riotous Golden Age Polka and the Burlesque from Copland’s Music for the Theatre sparkle. The scherzo from Brahms’s Fourth concludes the concert, music of general good spirits being another form of humor. WHAT IS A CONCERTO? (Black & White. Monaural. 59:14) Vivaldi. Bach. Mozart. Mendelssohn. Bartók NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein John Corigliano, violin, William Lincer, viola March 28, 1959. Carnegie Hall (live). VHS: Sony SHV 57431. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 3 What Is a Concerto? has more music than talk. Single movements by Vivaldi (“for Diverse Instruments”), Bach (Brandenburg No. 5, with Bernstein at the harpsichord), Mozart (Sinfonia Concertante, with John Corigliano and William Lincer), and the Mendelssohn Violin Concerto (Corigliano). The program concludes with the final two movements of Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra.

WHO IS GUSTAV MAHLER? (Black & White. Monaural. 52:49) Excerpts from Symphony No. 4, Symphony No. 2, Das Knaben Wunderhorn, and Das Lied von der Erde NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein Reri Grist, soprano; Helen Raab, contralto; William Lewis, tenor January 23, 1960. Carnegie Hall. Broadcast February 7, 1960 VHS: Sony SHV 57432. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 3 “Has any one of you ever heard of him? Mahler isn’t one of those big popular names like Beethoven, Gershwin, or Ravel.” That in 1960! Three excerpts from the Fourth Symphony include the complete finale with soprano Reri Grist. The program includes the Von der Jugend movement from Das Lied von der Erde (sung by William Lewis) and ends with the last eight minutes of Der Abschied (Helen Raab), a daring and challenging choice for a children’s program in any era. That’s part of what makes this series so rewarding. FOLK MUSIC IN THE CONCERT HALL (Black & White. Monaural. 53:00) Mozart. Bartók. Ravel. CHAVEZ Sinfonia India (11:15). Canteloube. Ives NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein Marni Nixon, soprano April 8, 1961. Carnegie Hall. Broadcast April 9, 1961 VHS: Sony SHV 57432. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 3 Folk Music presents the Minuet of Mozart’s Symphony No. 39, a snippet of Bartók, and all of Carlos Chavez’s Sinfonia India. Marni Nixon sings three of Canteloube’s Songs of the Auvergne, and the program closes with the finale from Ives’s Second Symphony. Ives said that Bernstein took the finale too slowly in 1951 (8:39), so Lenny slowed it down to 9:10 for his 1958 recording and to 10:05 in 1987. This time he zips through it in 8:20, and it’s better than ever. Musicians choose tempos for many reasons—in the 78-rpm era, to fit a movement onto a single side. Bernstein crams as much as he can into each program, which may be why he often adapts faster tempos in these hour-long presentations than in either his studio recordings or his live ones. WHAT IS IMPRESSIONISM? (B&W, 55:02) Beethoven. DEBUSSY La Mer (23:02). Johann Strauss Jr. Ravel NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein October 14, 1961. Carnegie Hall. Broadcast December 1, 1961 VHS: Sony SHV 57434 DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 4 Bernstein muses on the power of suggestion over that of mere fact and then proceeds to whole-tone scales and ancient Greek modes. The orchestra plays all of La Mer, with explanations prior to each movement. The final dance from Daphnis et Chloé concludes the hour.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, IGOR STRAVINSKY (Black & White. Monaural. 53:49) STRAVINSKY Greeting Prelude (0:58). Pétrouchka (32:11) NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein March 24, 1962. Carnegie Hall. Broadcast March 26, 1962 VHS: Sony SHV 57432. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 4 The program for this 1962 concert says “Suite from Pétrouchka,” but the entire ballet is played, in the 1947 revision. Bernstein tells the story (between each scene) and explains some of the musical techniques used by the composer. WHAT IS A MELODY? (Black & White. Monaural. 52:52) Mendelssohn. Beethoven.

DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 4 What Is a Melody? takes us to Philharmonic Hall, where the presentation weaves from Tristan to Mozart’s G-minor Symphony to Hindemith’s Concert Music for Brass and Strings, closing with the finale of Brahms’s Fourth Symphony.

Jazz in the Concert Hall also sticks to complete works, with an explanation of “third stream music.” Gunther Schuller leads his Journey into Jazz, a piece much like Peter and the Wolf, with Bernstein narrating. Copland gives an elegant rendition of his Piano Concerto, while Bernstein, who has kept his cool throughout most of these programs, dances up a storm. Despite its jazz elements and aleatoric sections, Larry Austin’s Improvisations proves a tough, dense modern work, at times even atonal. As has usually been the case when jazz and classical music are joined, it still sounds classical. The young audience is respectfully attentive at best, but this episode seems more for us than for them. WHAT IS SONATA FORM? (Black & White. Monaural. 52:56) Mozart. Lennon and McCartney. BIZET Carmen: Micaëla’s Aria (5:07). Prokofiev NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein Veronica Tyler, soprano October 17, 1964. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast November 6, 1964 VHS: Sony SHV 57435, Sony SHV57438. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 5 What Is Sonata Form? might be a difficult subject for children. Bernstein admits as much, but he makes it easy, sticking to the most common elements: A-B-A form; exposition, development, and recapitulation; the relationship and effect of tonic and dominant. Demonstrating that popular songs also depend on A-B-A structure, he breaks the kids up as he sings and imitates the Beatles. We finally get to understand why the Allegro of Mozart’s Piano Sonata, K. 545, frames every one of these programs, as Bernstein now plays and analyzes the movement. The opening movement of the “Jupiter” Symphony and the finale of Prokofiev’s “Classical” are the meat of this concert. A TRIBUTE TO SIBELIUS (Black & White. Monaural. 52:50) SIBELIUS Finlandia (7:42). Excerpts: Violin Concerto, Symphony No. 2 NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein Sergiu Luca, violin February 13, 1965. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast February 19, 1965 VHS: Sony SHV 57433. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 6 A Tribute to Sibelius begins with a slightly shortened version of Finlandia and continues with Sergio Luca playing the first movement of the Violin Concerto. There are few technical explications here, but the conductor does trace an ascending three-note motto throughout the Second Symphony before playing its finale. There are a lot of empty seats; was it the hall, winter weather, or Sibelius that kept the customers away? As impresario Sol Hurok once mused: “If they don’t want to come, there’s no way you can stop ‘em.” The sound of this concert, and its video, seem to backslide from previous programs.

MUSICAL ATOMS: A STUDY OF INTERVALS (Black & White. Monaural. 54:31) WAGNER Lohengrin: Act III Prelude (2:44). Johann Strauss Jr. Lennon and McCartney. Brahms. Vaughan Williams NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein October 23, 1965. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast November 29, 1965 VHS: Sony SHV 57436. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 6 Musical Atoms: A Study of Intervals finds us in a revamped Philharmonic Hall, which Bernstein says now works; the Lohengrin Act III Prelude seems to confirm him. The video, too, is back on track: One can now read the string parts when the camera angle is right. This is the most technical of all the Young People’s Concerts, as Bernstein explains and demonstrates intervals (“the heart and soul of music”) and inversion, offering the rule of nine: An inversion is always nine minus the interval (a seventh being the inversion of a second, etc). He points out that the main theme of Brahms’s Fourth Symphony is a series of alternating thirds and sixths. That first movement gets a stunning performance, dampened only by an abrupt slowdown as the coda begins. The finale of Vaughan Williams’s Fourth (illustrating major and minor seconds) does not fare as well. THE SOUND OF AN ORCHESTRA (Black & White. Monaural. 53:31) Haydn. Beethoven. Brahms. Debussy. Stravinsky. Gershwin. Copland. Bach NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein November 20, 1965. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast December 14, 1965 VHS: Sony SHV 57435. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 6 The Sound of an Orchestra makes the point that no orchestra should have a sound of its own; rather it should have an appropriate sound for each composer. The Largo of Haydn’s Symphony No. 88 is played all wrong, as if it were Tchaikovsky, and then played right, as Haydn. To the departing twenty-seven string players: “I’m sorry, gentlemen, but you’ll have to go.” This is a fascinating episode for all ages, as individual instrumentalists demonstrate the results of different types of vibrato and other variations in playing technique. The sounds of French and German music are contrasted via Ibéria and the Brahms First; L’Histoire du soldat and the Hoedown from Rodeo extend the argument. A BIRTHDAY TRIBUTE TO SHOSTAKOVICH (Black & White. Monaural. 52:58) SHOSTAKOVICH Symphony No. 9 (24:10) NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein December 18, 1965. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast January 5, 1966 VHS: Sony SHV 57433. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 7

A Birthday Tribute to Shostakovich starts with the opening minute of the Seventh Symphony, but the program is all about the Ninth. Bernstein spends a lot of time explaining its many jokes, and the Philharmonic gives a wonderful performance, far fresher and more pointed than its Columbia recording of two months earlier. This is tricky music to play, which leads to several brass clams and a few awkward moments; but they don’t matter one whit. The trouble with the error-free Columbia may be that the retakes and patches necessary to get it right spliced much of the life out of the performance. Once again, the concert performance is a full minute faster than the recorded one. Keep in mind that Bernstein adds ten extra minutes by explaining the jokes between movements. WHAT IS A MODE? (Color. Monaural. 53:23) DEBUSSY Nocturnes: Fêtes (5:49). Sibelius. Liszt. Rimsky-Korsakov. Brahms. Prokofiev. Chopin. MUSSORGSKY Boris Godunov: Act II Polonaise (3:06). BERNSTEIN Fancy Free: Danzon (2:33). Beethoven NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein October 22, 1966. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast November 23, 1966 VHS: Sony SHV 57435. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 7 What Is a Mode? ushers us into the world of color TV; it is a superb program in many ways. The subject is difficult, but Bernstein is at his best, making it all clear and holding the kids’ attention throughout. He spends most of the time at the piano, playing scales and singing pop songs, while presenting and explaining each mode. The orchestra plays the Act II Polonaise from Boris Godunov (Lydian mode), the Danzon from Bernstein’s own Fancy Free (Mixolydian), and Debussy’s Fêtes (several modes). The audio is as much improved as the video. Although there is no stereo separation, the sound is rich and full; the double basses in the Polonaise are thrilling. Bernstein’s presentations can be mesmerizing; the Philharmonic plays the final thirty seconds of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony, and it seems, at least for the moment, to be the ultimate performance. A TOAST TO VIENNA IN 3/4 TIME (Color. Monaural. 50:16) MOZART German Dance, K. 605, No. 3 in C “Sleigh Ride” (2:25). Johann Strauss Jr. Beethoven. MAHLER Das Knaben Wunderhorn: Rheinlegendchen (3:23), Des Antonius von Padua Fischpredigt (3:44), Verlor’ne Müh (2:42).

A Toast to Vienna in 3/4 Time celebrates the joint 125th anniversaries of the New York and Vienna Philharmonic Orchestras. A truncated Blue Danube leads it off, followed by a Mozart Ländler (“Sleigh Ride”) and the “Jupiter” Symphony’s Menuet. It is amusing to see three deadpan, dark-suited gentlemen of the Philharmonic carefully shaking the five tuned sets of sleigh bells. Beethoven finally gets a proper hearing, if without repeats: the Scherzo of the Seventh Symphony. Christa Ludwig and Walter Berry sing three songs from Das Knaben Wunderhorn. The kids don’t know quite what to make of Ms. Ludwig’s openly seductive acting and singing of “Verlor’ne Müh,” for which Bernstein has given a neat, if somewhat bowdlerized, synopsis: “A rather aggressive village maiden is offering, to a rustic lad, her company, her food, and her heart, in that order.” The Rosenkavalier Waltzes close the concert. Despite all the swoops and glides, this hour is not convincingly Viennese; it all sounds calculated, a street-smart New York atmosphere peeking through the Luftpausen. QUIZ CONCERT: HOW MUSICAL ARE YOU? (Color. Monaural. 50:40) MOZART: Le Nozze de Figaro: Overture (3:58). Prokofiev. RimskyKorsakov NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein February 24, 1968. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast May 26, 1968 VHS: Sony SHV 57436. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 8 Quiz Concert: How Musical Are You? Only Bernstein would dare to do this; indeed, he brags about it being a first. He tests the kids’ musicality more than their knowledge, and he makes them each keep score—at the concert, the programs had scorecards in place of written notes. Take the quiz yourself! BERLIOZ TAKES A TRIP (Color. Monaural. 51:30) BERLIOZ Symphonie fantastique (movements 2, 4, and 5) NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein January 11, 1969. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast May 25, 1969 VHS: Sony SHV 57437. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 8 Berlioz Takes a Trip travels through the psychedelic Symphonie fantastique. Having once told us that music doesn’t mean anything but music, Bernstein now talks of nothing but the drama. The first and third movements are sampled; the Ball, March to the Scaffold, and Witches’ Sabbath are played whole, the latter too fast for both orchestra and listener.

TWO BALLET BIRDS (Color. Stereo. 51:30) TCHAIKOVSKY Swan Lake: Black Swan Pas de deux (8:48). STRAVINSKY The Firebird: Suite (1919) (20:45) NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein April 19, 1969. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast September 14, 1969 VHS: Sony SHV 57437. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 8 In Two Ballet Birds, the conductor ignores the story of Swan Lake, instead poking fun at ballet conventions and ballet audiences. The tale is told with the 1919 Suite from The Firebird. Stereo television has arrived, with an exaggerated leftright spread, and the central solo oboe jumps back and forth between channels. What a joy it is to listen to Harold Gomberg’s magnificent oboe through these eleven seasons! The Philharmonic sound is less vibrant during his occasional absences. FIDELIO: A CELEBRATION OF LIFE (Color. Stereo. 51:20) BEETHOVEN Fidelio: Act II, scene 1: excerpts (27:24) NYP, conductor Leonard Bernstein Anita Darian (Leonore), Forrest Warren (Florestan), Howard Ross (Rocco), David Cumberland (Don Pizarro) January 10, 1970. Philharmonic Hall. Broadcast March 29, 1970 VHS: Sony SHV 57437. DVD: Kultur D1503, Disc 9 The final program features the dungeon scene from Fidelio. The Philharmonic— a great Beethoven orchestra—delivers a focused performance, and four young singers from the Juilliard School do quite well with the difficult dramatic roles and Beethoven’s near-impossible vocal demands. Bernstein’s overwrought explanations between each number break the dramatic continuity, but one can hardly blame him, faced with this overpowering music. By this time there were two performances of each Young People’s Concert, and the splicing between them is sometimes awkward. Nevertheless, this is a stirring climax to the series.

About the Author
The son of a pianist and an engineer, James H. North has led a life enriched by music and mathematics. A graduate of Williams College, with a double major in physics and in music, he was for thirty-five years a member of the Mathematical Sciences Department at IBM’s Thomas J. Watson Research Laboratory. His work in the 1950s has been called a foundation stone of artificial intelligence, and his development of automated problem-solving algorithms enabled the physical design of computer logic chips. Since 1988 he has been a freelance journalist and music critic, writing for such publications as Fanfare and Classic Record Collector. He has written program notes for LPs and CDs on the Past Masters, Koch, Music & Arts, and Teldec labels and has published major studies on composers Donald Erb and Joanna Bruzdowicz, pianist Youri Egorov, and on record producer Goddard Lieberson, whose Columbia Records made the majority of the New York Philharmonic’s recordings. In the introduction to the author’s monograph on the relationship between Willem Mengelberg and Gustav Mahler, English editor Tully Potter cited North as “a leading American critic.” Volunteer work managing the record collection at the Boston Symphony Archives led to similar efforts in New York and to this discography, as well as those in four of the New York Philharmonic’s multi-CD historical sets: The Mahler Broadcasts, An American Celebration, Bernstein Live, and Kurt Masur at the New York Philharmonic.
