Description:

The most important conductor in the history of Deutsche Grammophon is undoubtedly Herbert von Karajan. The vast amount of recordings made by Karajan for Deutsche Grammophon can be considered the history of postwar recordings themselves. Karajan's first postwar recording for DG, Richard Strauss' "Life of a Hero," was the beginning of a glorious legend, and the 50-year-old Karajan's conducting was full of confidence and energy. The legendary concertmaster of the Berlin Philharmonic, Michel Schwalbe's solo is also not to be missed. Universal Music
