Conductor Leopold Stokowski
Conductor Leopold Stokowski

Another Concert Hall Curveball: Autocratic conductor Leopold Stokowski scolded the audience at a concert in New York in 1945.

The International Sejong Soloists play the Air from the Orchestral Suite No. 3 and the Chorale Prelude "Jesus, O What Anguish," at the Sanibel Island Music Festival in Florida.
