The archivist at Radion NZ kindly sent the following info on their Tintner
recordings. There aren't many to be honest. The Lilburn and Wagner
look interesting though. I did not realise that Mr Tintner was the first
conductor of the fine Auckland Philharmonia.
I suspect that some private collector has off air recordings stashed
somewhere. The person who kindly gave me info said it was not a complete
list and he will make further enquiries with Radio NZ.
Kind regards,
