Alexander Kitschin was a conductor active in early twentieth-century European recording, represented in the Pristine catalogue by 1928-29 performances of Tchaikovsky and Glazunov with Berlin orchestras.

His surviving recorded legacy is small, but the discs attached to this page give him a clear identity in the catalogue: a Russian-associated conductor working in the German recording world of the late 1920s.

As represented here, his conducting belongs to the compact 78 rpm tradition, where clarity of gesture and directness were essential. The performances preserve a slice of interwar orchestral practice.

This note is deliberately cautious because public biographical documentation is limited. Kitschin is included because the Pristine release centres on him, not because the record needs a larger myth than it can support.
