Fritz Reiner - Had a special relationship with the New York Philharmonic.


I've had a number of requests to put this up again, only complete this time. Last year, when Newstalgia was in its first few weeks, I had put up this performance of the Moussorgsky Pictures At An Exhibition as performed by The New York Philharmonic, guest Conducted by the legendary Fritz Reiner from the broadcast of March 20, 1960. At the time, I only had YouTube as a means of offering this post. And YouTube has a ten minute maximum on their players which meant I could either not offer this at all, or offer a ten minute excerpt with the promise that I would offer the complete performance some day when we got the new C&L players.

Well, that some day has arrived and I am happy to offer this complete performance of the Moussorgsky Pictures At An Exhibition with The New York Philharmonic led by Fritz Reiner.

Sorry it took so long.
