The Nutcracker,\" which was exceptionally re-recorded on RCA in 1945 despite its transfer to Columbia) on 21 CDs.\n\n\n\n■Three-hour session with the heart to record two symphonies, one concerto, and two orchestral works.\n\nOrmandy made his debut with the Philadelphia Orchestra in 1931 at the age of 31. He conducted this prestigious orchestra as a substitute for Toscanini, who suddenly became ill, with great success. A few months later, Ormandy conducted the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra again, this time as a substitute for Henri Verbruggen, and won unprecedented acclaim, becoming the orchestra's Music Director, a position he held for five years, devoting himself to the orchestra's development, and recording for RCA, quickly establishing himself as an unshakable force in American music. He quickly gained a solid position in the American music scene.Immediately after his tenure in Minneapolis ended, Ormandy was recalled to the Philadelphia Orchestra, where he became \"co-conductor\" in parallel with Stokowski. As early as December 13, 1936, during his inaugural season, he began recording Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 \"Pathetique\" with the Philadelphia Orchestra for RCA. Ormandy was a conductor who understood the recording method perfectly and was able to work very efficiently, as evidenced by the fact that in this first session he recorded not only the great \"Pathetique\" Symphony, but also Schumann's Second Symphony, two Bach arrangements, and the Paganini Concerto with Fritz Kreisler as soloist. Two years later he became the orchestra's sole music director, and the pace of recording accelerated until the National Union of Musicians banned all commercial recordings in 1942, during World War II. By the time the ban was lifted in 1944, the duo had moved to rival Columbia Records.\n\n(1\/3)\n\nSony Music\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51105743995169,"sku":"196587710620","price":1713000.0,"currency_code":"IDR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/196587710620.jpg?v=1743422203","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-id\/products\/196587710620","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
