The Stokowski Swagger.




The authentic (sic) performing militia hate Stokowski, and that alone is a good enough reason to like him.

His Beethoven is big, bold, dramatic, intense. As my father used to say, Beethoven's Fifth is one of those pieces of music that makes you get out of your chair to conduct the imaginary orchestra behind the wall, and this is even more true with the Stokowski interpretation.

Like many of the greats, he lived a lavish lifestyle hobnobning with the rich and famous; a favourite of Hollywood, he was parodied in the Bugs Bunny episode 'Long-Haired Hare'!

If you enjoy a big fat cabernet sauvignon, peaty whisky, strong coffee and dark chocolate, then you'll like Stokowski. If not then stay away!
