Omschrijving
Dictators of the Baton is a non-fiction book written by David Ewen that explores the lives and careers of some of the most famous and influential conductors in classical music history. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different conductor, including Arturo Toscanini, Wilhelm Furtw�����ngler, Herbert von Karajan, and Leonard Bernstein, among others. The author provides detailed biographical information about each conductor, including their upbringing, musical training, and career highlights. He also delves into their personal lives, relationships, and political affiliations, particularly during times of war and political upheaval. Throughout the book, Ewen emphasizes the immense power wielded by conductors, both in terms of their ability to shape the sound of an orchestra and their influence over audiences and cultural institutions. He also explores the various controversies and scandals that have surrounded some of these conductors, including accusations of authoritarianism, elitism, and even Nazi sympathies. Overall, Dictators of the Baton offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of classical music and the larger-than-life figures who have helped shape it over the past century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in music history, conducting, or the cultural impact of great artists.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
