Georges Prêtre conducts “A French Night” at the Waldbühne
Georges Prêtre was one of the most impressive conductors of his generation, an outstanding interpreter of the French repertory and at the same time a civilized figure of great charm and vitality. All the more valuable is this unique television broadcast of his work with the Berliner Philharmoniker: a concert recorded at the Berlin Waldbühne in 1992 and featuring a number of French gems, including Ravel’s Concerto for the Left Hand with Leon Fleisher as the soloist.
