IP new issue Bruckner Strauss Schubert Sibelius

[chez_toscanini]

The previously announced by largo new Issue of Immortal performances (Richard Caniell) is out today.

It seems that Caniell also fills in recording gaps with independent source material, sometimes by the same artists, and sometimes not, as Caniell made with other recordings. The reviewer says also that "The January 27, 1935 NY Phil performance of the Bruckner 7 is the only recording of Toscanini conducting music by the great Austrian composer", but as far as I know a Bruckner 4 should exist at NYPL. No one has better news?

 I do not understand the cover title "The 1935 broadcast of the New York Philharmonic

WORLD PREMIERE RELEASE
BRUCKNER'S SYMPHONY NO. 7 IN E MAJOR
(Complete)
also
STRAUSS: SALOME: DANCE OF THE SEVEN VEILS

The second CD in this New York Philharmonic set offers
SCHUBERT'S SYMPHONY NO. 9 IN C
from the concert of 26 April 1936
and the Sibelius tone poem
EN SAGA

from the concert of 20 March 1936"

Caniell warns that the Schubert derives from a very noisy source

That's all folks (for the moment)

No, there has never been any other Bruckner recording other than that 7th symphony.

For those who want to be better informed, here is the finding aid of all the recordings in The Toscanini Legacy (recordings from his estate):

Many thanks, Bob, so it was a metropolitan legend.

However I see there are some BBC and La Scala recordings (and not only) not yet available.

I am thrilled this is out.  Back in 1974, the closest I could get to this was meeting someone who heard it.  He said that the slow movement was very germanic.

I was a young fellow then.  I was an old married man when I was finally able to obtain the first CD release.  I am eager to see what Caniel can do with the source material.
