Sergiu Celibidache 1912 - 1996

Sergiu Celibidache studied at the Berlin College of Music from 1939-45 under Fritz Stein. In 1945, he had the unprecedented opportunity to succeeded Furtwangler (because of a 3 year ban) with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra after the war. So, for three years, Celibidache conducted the BPO and showed his exceptional ability. Upon Furtwängler's return as the head of the orchestra in 1948, Celibidache worked as a guest conductor. At first, he continued to work mainly with Berlin orchestras - the Philharmonic Orchestra and the RIAS Berlin Radio Orchestra. After the appointment of Karajan as the principal conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, Celibidache did not conduct the orchestra again for another 37 years. 1948 saw his debut in London. Then he frequently conducted in Italy. From 1959 he was regularly invited by the Stuttgart Radio Orchestra. From 1960-62 he held master courses at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena. In 1962 he became the director of the Stockholm Radio Symphony Orchestra, until 1971. From 1973-75 he was the a permanent guest conductor of the French Orchestre National. In 1979 he became the director of the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, which he made one of the best orchestras in the world. In Munich he held master courses in orchestral conducting. He died in 1996. His conducting approach was considered somewhat unconventional. Celibidache was controversial and a bit of a "mystic" in both in style and approach, somewhat akin to a Leopold Stokowski.
