Frieder Weissmann (1893-1984) was a German conductor, active in opera, symphonic music and recording. He made many recordings in the 1920s and 1930s before emigrating from Europe.

In the Pristine catalogue he appears with violinist Josef Wolfsthal in Beethoven and Mozart concerto recordings.

Weissmann’s conducting was shaped by the practical demands of early recording: clarity, concision and reliable support for soloists within strict technical limits.

His page is justified by historical recording activity and catalogue presence. Weissmann is one of those conductors whose name often sits quietly under very important soloists.
