James Zehm writes: >I think Ferenec Fricsay does a very good job with Mozart although his >repertiore really to great extent were 20th century....Stravinsky, Bartok, >Kodaly ... While conducting the RIAS Symphony in postwar Berlin Fricsay excelled at the German classical repertoire. I still havce a couple of his Haydn LPs, and they are of premium quality! But of course, being a Hungarian, as well as the son of the greatest Hungarian bandmaster of his time, Fricsay also excelled in interpreting Hungarian composers, including, as Mr. Zehm notes, Bartok and Kodaly. I've never heard him do Stravinsky, but I have not the slightest doubt that he had the musical background to deliver him, too. Denis Fodor Internet:[log in to unmask]
