This is the latest issue in Guild's hugely successful Toscanini series of Historic broadcasts, and it is of outstanding interest to admirers of the Maestro. It is the legendary Pension Fund Concert of the New York Philharmonic from January 1945, and which was to prove the last time Toscanini conducted this great orchestra, from which he had resigned in 1936. The programme duplicates the first-ever concert he gave with the Philharmonic in 1926 and the performances are of exceptional beauty and virtuosity. A true collector's issue for all lovers of great conducting.
