[78-L] Bernstein

[Philip Carli]

Arnold Volpe, the conductor who founded the Lewisohn Stadium concerts, made recordings for Pathe in the early 20s as "Arnold Volpe's Stadium Symphony Orchestra" which were released both as vertical-cut discs and Actuelles (I have one of the verticals). PC

The summer orchestra was the NYPO minus a number of first chairs and even some 2nd chairs (2nd bassoonist Frank Ruggieri always took the summer off and Loren Glickman, the contractor for the Columbia Symphony NY version, played in his stead). I believe that the recording orchestra was the regular NYPO under the assumed name. There were a number of Stadium Sym recordings on Everest besides the ones on Music Appreciation.
