He was a "sleeper" conductor who I think could have gone to the forefront, had times or situation been a little different.........
Still conducted far and away the best Rachmaninoff 2nd Symphony I've experienced.
I just uploaded the whole performance of Shipway's Rachmaninoff Two.... The sound is not the greatest, it was originally recorded off an FM radio to cassette deck.... But if you can listen through that, this should be an enthralling experience.
