Jean Martinon
Jean Martinon (1910-1976) was a French conductor and composer, admired in French repertory and twentieth-century music. He worked with major European and American orchestras.
In the Pristine catalogue he appears in Fauré, Offenbach and related French repertory with the London Philharmonic Orchestra and Kathleen Long.
Martinon’s conducting was clear, elegant and rhythmically alert, with a natural feel for French colour and line.<...
