All of Stock’s symphonic recordings will be\n featured in upcoming volumes (his four concerto recordings have already\n been well-covered on CD reissues), presented in the order in which they\n were recorded. Many items have not been available since the 78 rpm era. In\n this volume, all of the acoustics except for the Mendelssohn are being\n reissued for the first time, as are the electrics of the Dvořák and Thomas\n overtures and two Strauss waltzes.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Stock was born in Jülich, Germany, on 11 November 1872. His father, an army\n bandmaster, provided his early musical training. He entered Cologne\n Conservatory at the age of fourteen studying violin and composition; among\n his teachers was Humperdinck, and Willem Mengelberg was a classmate. Upon\n his graduation in 1890, he joined the Municipal Orchestra of Cologne as a\n violinist. Five years later, he auditioned for the visiting Theodore\n Thomas, who was recruiting players for his four-year-old Chicago Orchestra.\n Thomas hired him initially as a violist, but within four years he\n recognized Stock’s conducting talent and made him his assistant.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n When Thomas died suddenly in January, 1905, Stock served as interim music\n director while the orchestra board attempted to secure the services of such\n well-known European conductors as Weingartner, Richter and Mottl. When the\n board’s efforts failed, Stock was appointed for a trial year. He was to\n remain music director until his death thirty-seven years later (20 October\n 1942), a record surpassed among major American orchestras only by Ormandy’s\n tenure with the Philadelphia, and by few other conductor\/orchestra\n combinations throughout the world (Mengelberg\/Concertgebouw,\n Mravinsky\/Leningrad).\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Stock’s recording career divides neatly into three periods. His Columbia\n acoustics of 1916-17 (the first recordings made by a credited American\n orchestra under its own music director) were succeeded, after an eight-year\n hiatus, by a series of electrical recordings for Victor (1925-30) which\n included Bach’s B Minor Suite, a Mozart 40th, Schumann’s “Spring” Symphony\n and Tchaikovsky’s Fifth. After another nine-year absence from the\n microphone, Stock and the Chicago Symphony rejoined Columbia for two\n seasons (1939-40 and 1940-41) for an extensive string of recordings\n including a Mozart “Prague”, the Schubert 9th, the Schumann Fourth, Brahms’\n Third and \u003cem\u003eTragic\u003c\/em\u003e Overture, Tchaikovsky’s \u003cem\u003eNutcracker\u003c\/em\u003e\n Suite, Strauss’ \u003cem\u003eAlso Sprach Zarathustra\u003c\/em\u003e and numerous short\n “popular” works, as well as concerto recordings with Milstein and\n Piatigorsky. Returning to Victor for what turned out to be his final full\n season with the orchestra (1941-42), he made two much-admired Beethoven\nconcerto recordings with Schnabel, as well as Dvořák’s \u003cem\u003eIn Nature’s Realm\u003c\/em\u003e and the Chausson Symphony.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The acoustics and early electrics presented in this volume benefit from the\n lack of re-scoring typical of other recordings of the era, in which tubas\n reinforced the bass line and other instruments that “projected” better were\n substituted for the original choices. Only the \u003cem\u003eParsifal\u003c\/em\u003e excerpt\n seems to be notably lacking in tympani support, which is nonetheless heard\n elsewhere among the acoustics. The sound on these reveals a reduced\n ensemble in small venues; yet the well-disciplined playing of the orchestra\n is apparent even in the earliest recordings. By the time of their first\n sessions with the full ensemble in the rather over-reverberantly recorded\n Orchestra Hall, the Chicago Symphony’s stature among the world’s great\n ensembles has been firmly established, as has their conductor’s\n rhythmically flexible and vital interpretive approach.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The sources for the transfers were American Columbia “Tri-Color” label\n pressings for the acoustics, and mainly “Z” and “Gold” label Victor\n pressings for the electrics except for the Brahms, which came from a vinyl\n test pressing. The second side of the Thomas overture and the Handel and\n Elgar recordings were dubbed very early on in order to prevent blasting on\n the heavy pickups of the day. These are presented here from undubbed first\n edition “Orthophonic” pressings, which, though somewhat heavier in surface\n noise, better preserve the immediacy and dynamic range of the original\n recordings.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n \u003cstrong\u003eMark Obert-Thorn\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item--heading\"\u003eFREDERICK STOCK and The Chicago Symphony, Volume 2 (1925-1929) - PASC684\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item--content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n This release is the second in a series devoted to longtime Chicago Symphony\n Orchestra music director Frederick Stock, inaugurated to celebrate the\n 150th anniversary of his birth in 1872. All of Stock’s symphonic recordings\n will be featured in upcoming volumes (his four concerto recordings have\n already been well-covered on CD reissues), presented for the most part in\n the order in which they were recorded. Several items have not been\n available since the 78-rpm era (here, the Dvořák, Glinka, Glazunov and\n Smetana works). The Strauss waltz is making its CD\/digital debut, while the\n 1925 recording of the Suk is being released for the first time.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n We depart from our chronological presentation for our opening two\n selections. The Bach was recorded immediately after the Glinka; but as the\n only Baroque-era item on our program, it seemed to fit better as the\n opening number. Stock’s approach, though still using a large orchestra with\n modern instruments, anticipates later “HIP” trends toward swifter tempi,\n and diverges from the more monumental contemporaneous Bach recordings of\n Mengelberg in the same score (in Pristine PASC 595) and Stokowski in the\n Brandenburg Second (although the mad dash through the Bourées sounds as\n though it was at least partially dictated by side length restrictions).\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Following this is a rarity: the first publication of an unissued recording\n by Stock and the CSO. During their December, 1925 sessions, this Intermezzo\n from Josef Suk’s \u003cem\u003eFairy Tale\u003c\/em\u003e Suite was recorded on a 10-inch side\n with a reduced orchestra in a small venue. No coupling for it was taken\n down at the time, so it was not immediately released. A year to the day\n later, the piece was re-recorded in Symphony Hall with the full orchestra\n on a 12-inch side, and the earlier version was forgotten. It did not\n surface in time to be included in its proper place in our previous volume\n (but better 98 years late than never!) Hearing it next to its remake allows\n us to appreciate the advancement that electrical recording techniques had\n made in just one year.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Perhaps because of the over-reverberant acoustics of Orchestra Hall in the\n 1926 recordings, sessions for the following two years were moved to the\n smaller Goodman Theatre. The orchestra’s entire recording schedule for 1927\n was devoted to a single work: the Tchaikovsky Fifth Symphony. The resulting\n album, though tonally full and detailed, was problematic, due to the\n frequent “gain-riding” of the recording engineer, which resulted in sudden\n volume changes throughout each side. (I have attempted to undo these\n manipulations in the present transfer.) Additionally, shortly after the\n album was released, the first side of the last movement was dubbed to avoid\n blasting when played using the heavy pickups of the day. An undubbed\n original Orthophonic pressing of this side was used here, while the rest of\n the sides came from quieter “Gold”-era pressings from the set’s reissue on\n Victor’s budget “Black Label” series (album G-4). (The \u003ci\u003eLuftpause \u003c\/i\u003eheard at 3:58 in the first movement is not a side-join error, but rather an interpretive mannerism Stock intended, as he repeats it in the middle of a side later on at 9:48.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n At a time when not all of the Beethoven and Brahms symphonies were yet\n represented in the Victor catalog, it was an adventurous choice to record\n Dohnányi’s 1909 Suite in F-sharp, a work whose wide range (from a Brahmsian\n set of variations to a bravura, castanet-accompanied finale) seems to fit\n Stock and his ensemble to a “T”. The Wagner arrangement was made by\n Theodore Thomas, the Chicago Symphony's founder and Stock's predecessor as\n principal conductor. The Schumann Symphony was the only Stock\/Chicago\n recording here to gain an “official” CD release on RCA, although that was\n marred by a notably sharp transfer (A4=450). The corrected speed here\n allows us to appreciate the performance in a less-hectic aspect than\n previously presented.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n \u003cstrong\u003eMark Obert-Thorn\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item--heading\"\u003eFREDERICK STOCK and The Chicago Symphony, Volume 3 (1929-1930) - PASC699\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item--content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\n This release is the third in a series devoted to longtime Chicago\n Symphony Orchestra music director Frederick Stock, inaugurated to\n celebrate the 150th anniversary of his birth in 1872.

Returning to Victor for what turned out to be\n his final full season with the orchestra (1941-42), he made two\n much-admired Beethoven concerto recordings with Schnabel, as well as\n Dvořák’s \u003cem\u003eIn Nature’s Realm\u003c\/em\u003e and the Chausson Symphony.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n In the works presented in this volume, Stock returned to some composers who\n featured again and again in his recordings – Glazunov, Goldmark, Johann\n Strauss II and Wagner – while adding two who were new to his discography,\n Mozart and the conductor himself. Stock only recorded two Mozart works,\n the G minor Symphony heard here and the “Prague” Symphony, which he\n recorded for Columbia in 1939. His approach here is relatively\n straightforward, in the tradition of the large modern orchestra\n performances of the time, with just a few touches of string portamento to\n betray his Romantic-era roots.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Like many conductors of his generation, Stock also kept up an active\n composing life, producing symphonies, concertos and other types of\n orchestral works, many of which he premièred with the Chicago Symphony.\n Only one of these was recorded under his baton, his\n \u003cem\u003e\n Symphonic Waltz\n \u003c\/em\u003e\n of 1907, which looks back at the waltzes of Johann Strauss (whose\n \u003cem\u003e\n Wine, Women and Song\n \u003c\/em\u003e\n is quoted in the work) even as it seems to look forward to the dense\n orchestration and harmonies of Richard Strauss’ \u003cem\u003eDer Rosenkavalier\u003c\/em\u003e\n and the dreamlike diversions of Ravel’s \u003cem\u003eLa valse\u003c\/em\u003e.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The economic depression which hit the United States in October, 1929 led\n the Victor label to severely curtail their program of Classical recording.\n The works heard here were the last that Stock and the Chicago Symphony\n would set down on disc for nine years. When they appeared once more before\n the microphone, they were back with their original label, Columbia.

For the\n next few years, only Stokowski’s Philadelphia Orchestra was recorded with\n any regularity, and that was only made possible by the use of drastically\n reduced forces playing in a small studio. While the Boston Symphony and\n New York Philharmonic came back to the fold after a few years, the Chicago\n Symphony remained unrecorded for nearly a decade.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n In November of 1939, Stock and the Chicagoans rejoined their original\n label, Columbia, for a new set of recordings. The move came at an\n auspicious moment, for the label had just begun recording directly on\n lacquer master discs, where a wider frequency range than previously\n available on shellac discs could be captured. Indeed, the first item of\n their first session (the \u003cem\u003eNutcracker\u003c\/em\u003e Suite) was the first such\n master recording Columbia made. Although at the time the lacquers were\n used for dubbing to standard wax 78 rpm masters, they later serendipitously\n proved to be a sonically superior source for transfer to LPs.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The present reissue utilizes, wherever possible, the early 1950s\n remasterings for Columbia’s Entré LP series, taken from quiet, high-quality\n lacquer masters, as the basis for new restorations. Although most of\n Stock’s Chicago recordings from this period were reissued in this series, a\n few never appeared on LP, including \u003cem\u003eAlso Sprach Zarathustra\u003c\/em\u003e and\n the \u003cem\u003eEuryanthe\u003c\/em\u003e Overture. These have been transferred from their\n only published source, sonically compromised 78 rpm shellac dubs.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The Chicago Symphony that we hear on these recordings is a bit different\n from the ensemble on the 1925-30 Victor series. Playing practices had\n changed over the prior decade, with string portamento now being used more\n sparingly and discreetly. The now 67-year-old Stock conducts with his\n customary high energy; but there are fewer examples of the kind of willful,\n idiosyncratic touches he displayed in, for example, his 1927 Tchaikovsky\n Fifth (although he still inserts \u003cem\u003eLuftpausen\u003c\/em\u003e to divide sections in\n the outer movements of the Mozart “Prague”). His interpretations have\n seemed to move a bit more to a somewhat objective middle – if not quite\n Toscaniniesque, then at least prefiguring what Fritz Reiner would later\n bring to this orchestra.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Mention of Reiner begs the observation that Stock was the first conductor\n to record \u003cem\u003eAlso Sprach Zarathustra\u003c\/em\u003e with the Chicago Symphony, a\n tradition which was to continue under music directors Artur Rodzinski\n (reissued on Pristine PASC 569), Fritz Reiner (twice – 1954, on PASC 411,\n and 1962) and Sir Georg Solti, as well as Pierre Boulez. Concertmaster John\n Weicher played the violin solos on the first three recordings. Stock\n brings a thoroughly idiomatic sweep and drama to this score (which, oddly,\n never saw a Columbia LP reissue, even though there was not another\n recording of the work in the label’s catalog).\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n It is interesting to see so much of the repertoire that was associated with\n Leopold Stokowski’s best-selling recordings with the Philadelphia Orchestra\n chosen for Stock’s Columbia sessions (here, the \u003cem\u003eNutcracker\u003c\/em\u003e Suite,\n \u003cem\u003eSwan of Tuonela\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eDanse Macabre\u003c\/em\u003e, even\n \u003cem\u003e\n Procession of the Sardar\n \u003c\/em\u003e\n ). One wonders whether Columbia saw Stock as a good marketing match to\n counter Stokowski’s Victor repertoire.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n Along with \u003cem\u003eZarathustra\u003c\/em\u003e, the Schubert Ninth takes pride of place\n among the works presented here as one of Stock’s finest interpretations on\n disc. \u003cem\u003eFanfare\u003c\/em\u003e critic Mortimer Frank called it “a superb account […]\n which, even in today’s heavy competition, would shine as one of the great\n recordings of the score.” Frank also called attention to “[t]wo aspects\n of the performance [that] are especially interesting: a march-like\n insistence in the second movement and the playing of the two final measures\n of the first movement strictly in tempo, thereby italicizing their motivic\n relationship to what has preceded. Toscanini, so far as I can recall, was\n the only other conductor on record to do this […]”.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The recording dates shown are taken from the late Don Tait’s unpublished\n CSO discography, which utilized data from Columbia’s recording logs, some\n of which was missing or ambiguous. The matrix and take numbers of the\n issued 78s bear no relationship to the lacquer masters, and were assigned\n at the time of dubbing.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n \u003cstrong\u003eMark Obert-Thorn\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item--heading\"\u003eFREDERICK STOCK and The Chicago Symphony, Volume 5 (1940-1941) - PASC749\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item--content\"\u003eThe current volume of our series devoted to Frederick Stock’s purely orchestral recordings with the Chicago Symphony begins with his final recordings for Columbia, as well as the first disc made upon his return to Victor at the end of 1941, placed here because it would not have fit with his remaining late Victors on the single release that will conclude this series.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBetween the end of Volume 4 and the first work on this volume, Stock made his only two concerto recordings for Columbia.  On the same day (6 March 1940), he set down the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto with Milstein and the Saint-Saëns Cello Concerto No. 1 with Piatigorsky.  As both of these have seen several CD reissues already, they are omitted from this series.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe next session, held on 23 November 1940, featured Stock’s only electrical recording made in New York while the orchestra was on tour, the Brahms Third Symphony.  Stock’s reading here, like many of the other performances on this release, is filled with an energy and forward momentum that belies his reported health problems which had led to the engagement of Toscanini’s assistant from the New York Philharmonic, Hans Lange, to join the CSO as assistant conductor several years earlier to help shoulder the workload.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe remaining Columbias in this release were all set down during two very fruitful days of recording the following year, Friday and Saturday April 25th and 26th, 1941.  These were given over to recording mainly shorter pieces (overtures and “pops” material), with the only extended work being the Schumann Fourth.  It is noteworthy that of the seven complete symphonies Stock recorded over his career, two were by Schumann (this and the 1929 Victor recording of the “Spring” Symphony on Volume 2 (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pristineclassical.com\/products\/pasc684\"\u003e\u003ci\u003ePASC 684\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e)).  By this time in his career, Stock’s approach had changed from the rather \u003ci\u003egemütlich \u003c\/i\u003eapproach of the earlier recording to a more driven, Toscanini-like reading, entirely appropriate to this more dramatic score.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStock’s largely conservative discography might blind us to the fact that he was a champion of contemporary repertoire throughout his career.  He was the first to perform the Mahler Seventh in the USA; and a year after Stokowski had given the American première of the Eighth in Philadelphia in 1916, Stock programmed it in Chicago.  In 1921, he conducted the world première of Prokofiev’s Piano Concerto No. 3 with the composer as soloist, and was the first to champion Florence Price by conducting her First Symphony in 1933.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor the orchestra’s 50th season (1940-41), Stock commissioned a number of famous composers to contribute new works to be premièred by the ensemble, including Stravinsky’s Symphony in C, Miaskovsky’s Symphony No. 21, Kodaly’s Concerto for Orchestra and Milhaud’s First Symphony.  The only work which Stock recorded from this endeavor was Walton’s \u003ci\u003eScapino \u003c\/i\u003eOverture.  Scapino was an Italian Commedia dell’Arte figure known to escape scrapes and close calls with his wits, and Walton constructed an aptly fleet work to showcase him.  This disc, recorded three weeks after its première on 3 April 1941, utilizes the original scoring for large orchestra.  In 1950, Walton revised the score for smaller forces in a version that was first given by Furtwängler and the Philharmonia Orchestra that year.  The work is close in spirit to Arthur Benjamin’s “Overture to an Italian Comedy” which closes this release, although the Benjamin predated the Walton by several years.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs far as the rest of the repertoire goes, Glazunov must have been one of Stock’s favorite composers, because his works are featured in his discography as far back as his early acoustic recordings as well as in his late-Twenties Victors.  Here, he gets to record three full discs of the composer’s works.  The Liadov was never issued on 78s, probably because it was an “odd side” that didn’t have a coupling.  And Stock’s arrangement of Paganini’s “Moto Perpetuo”, with its quotations from Beethoven’s \u003ci\u003eEroica\u003c\/i\u003e\/\u003ci\u003ePrometheus \u003c\/i\u003emusic in counterpoint, is much cleverer than Toscanini’s more straightforward all-string arrangement recorded two years earlier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur next volume will be the final one in this series, featuring the remainder of Stock’s non-concerto Victors from 1941.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMark Obert-Thorn\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item--heading\"\u003eFREDERICK STOCK and The Chicago Symphony, Volume 6 (1941) - PASC771\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item--content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis final volume of our series devoted to Frederick Stock’s purely orchestral recordings with the Chicago Symphony features the remainder of the sides made during his December, 1941 Victor sessions other than Arthur Benjamin’s \u003cem\u003eOverture to an Italian Comedy\u003c\/em\u003e, which was placed at the end of the prior volume due to timing constraints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStock’s compositional efforts include several transcriptions, a few of which he recorded in Chicago going back to the acoustic era. The Bach “St. Anne” Prelude and Fugue is the most ambitious of the works that he orchestrated to see release on disc, and is more opulently scored than Arnold Schoenberg’s take on the same work (which that composer conducted with the CSO in 1934). One other Stock transcription from these sessions, an electric remake of his arrangement of “The Star-Spangled Banner”, has never been released and is believed to be lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStock made few Wagner recordings, but what he did leave behind was memorable. The “Forest Murmurs” from \u003cem\u003eSiegfried\u003c\/em\u003e was meant to replace Mengelberg’s 1928 New York recording in the Victor catalog, yet for unknown reasons it was never issued on 78s. It has been transferred here from a vinyl test pressing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough Stock excelled in the rhythms and color of such middle European repertoire as that of Dvořák, Smetana and Suk, he recorded comparatively little of it. In these sessions, having already set down the middle part of Dvořák’s “Nature, Life and Love” triptych (the \u003cem\u003eCarnival\u003c\/em\u003e Overture, in Volume 1), he now assayed the first section, \u003cem\u003eIn Nature’s Realm\u003c\/em\u003e. These, along with a single Slavonic Dance (in Volume 2) were his only Dvořák recordings. It was issued on three sides, and having no appropriate new filler, was released with a reissue of his 1926 recording of a movement from Suk’s \u003cem\u003eFairy Tale Suite\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chicago Symphony’s long association on disc with the music of Richard Strauss began during Stock’s tenure. Yet, despite strong performances of \u003cem\u003eAlso Sprach Zarathustra\u003c\/em\u003e (on Volume 4) and a live broadcast of \u003cem\u003eTill Eulenspiegel\u003c\/em\u003e, the single movement from the composer’s early work \u003cem\u003eAus Italien\u003c\/em\u003e is the total of Stock’s Strauss on disc. The conductor’s way with the graceful swooping of the birds over Sorrento makes one wish Victor had recorded the entire score.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eChausson’s only symphony has never achieved the popularity of that of his teacher and mentor César Franck, on which it is clearly modeled. Only three recordings of it were made during the entire 78 rpm era; but Stock’s is the best played, best recorded and arguably the most persuasively interpreted of the lot. His passionate reading makes a strong case for this underrated score, and also includes a surprise in the third movement: Stock rescores the solo trumpet-led chorale theme toward the end for the organ, in a nod to Saint-Saëns’ Third Symphony (or perhaps Tchaikovsky’s \u003cem\u003eManfred\u003c\/em\u003e, where it appears in a similar place), a substitution not to be found in any other recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStock returned for two more Victor sessions in July of 1942, recording the Beethoven Fourth and Fifth (“Emperor”) Concertos with Artur Schnabel, performances which have stayed in the catalog for much of the time since and are not included in this series. He died three months later, ending a 47-year association with the Chicago Symphony, 37 of it spent as its music director, one of the longest tenures of any conductor-orchestra association in history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cb\u003eMark Obert-Thorn\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_download_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample3_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample4_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample5_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample6_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_labelfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5fFull Track Listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_typefb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5ftrack_listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_contentfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--heading\"\u003eClick below to expand track listing:\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pristine-boxset-track-listing--item--heading\"\u003eFREDERICK STOCK and The Chicago Symphony, Volume 1 (1916-1926) -
