The lasting fame of conductor Karl Böhm is based on qualities that have been attested to him with great unanimity by listeners, musicians and critics throughout his long professional life: Discipline, rigor and precision in the elaboration of compositions and, at the same time, unpretentious stepping back behind the work and the composer in performance. After several years as a conductor in opera houses, he left administrative duties behind and worked as a celebrated guest, touring, concert, and opera conductor. He was regularly invited to the New York “Met” and the Deutsche Oper Berlin, to the festivals in Salzburg (from 1938) and Bayreuth (from 1962), made guest appearances between Tokyo and Moscow, Milan and Buenos Aires, and last but not least at the radio stations of Berlin, Munich, Cologne, Frankfurt and Stuttgart, which were happy to engage him when there was something important to celebrate.The Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra (which has been known by various names through the decades and merged with its sister orchestra from Baden-Baden and Freiburg in 2016 to form the SWR Symphony Orchestra ever since) has played not only in its home region but throughout Germany and Europe. It has an impressive catalog of several hundred recordings and accompanied many of the most important soloists of the 20th century. Branka Musulin was an extraordinary pianist who worked with some of the most famous conductors of her time, including Willem Mengelberg, Hermann Abendroth, Franz Konwitschny, Georg Solti and Sergiu Celibidache.
