Edith Peinemann - The SWR Studio Recordings 1952-1965
In this collection the early studio recordings of the great violinist Edith Peinemann are released for the first time on CD. The box contains chamber music as well as well as standard-setting interpretations of the violin concertos by Dvorak, Bartók, Pfitzner and Sibelius, which Edith Peinemann performed many times around the world. The recording of the violin concerto by Pfitzner, conducted by Hans Rosbaud, was realized on December 21st 1962, few days after the live performance in Baden-Baden with the Südwestfunk Symphony Orchestra. It was the last performance (and last recording) of Hans Rosbaud, who died several days afterwards.
