(Amadeus). Arturo Toscanini: The NBC Years details Toscanini's
magnificent and heroic 17 years (1937-1954) conducting the NBC
Symphony Orchestra. The archival broadcast recordings documented
and reassessed in this lively account comprise the most complete
recorded legacy of Toscanini's orchestral conducting career. The
broadcast recordings include his readings of many scores for which
he left no approved recording, and his NBC career included
performances of works he never conducted before coming to the
network. The concerts and the broadcasts were immensely popular,
and for generations Toscanini's name became synonymous with
conducting. His legendary art and fiery personality also engendered
controversy that has yet to subside, but this account takes on the
challengers, accepting neither hero worship nor criticism that
ignores the evidence.
