[edit]

The sentence about Schwarz not escaping from Germany comes from a long paragraph on p50 in the Patmore article. I can type it all here for you to look at if you wish.

The second (removed) quote from Rattle is also from Patmore, p53

Sorry - and the Glock business comes from Patmore, quoting the Nicholas Kenyon study of the BBC Symphony Orchestra (which I don't have).

Thanks very much. I have made a few changes based on your comments -- would you mind checking that I understood everything correctly? Cheers. Grover cleveland (talk) 00:51, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, it seems fine - I wondered about inserting 'Potential' before 'conflict' but I think it can stand. I imagine Dr Exon's research has the full answers. Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 10:03, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies for missing your comments dated 00:35, 16 August 2008 - I will quote what Patmore writes and let you decide: ...When Joseph Keilberth pleaded with him to leave Germany in August 1939 just before the outbreak of the second world war, Schwarz declared "There will be no war! No war!" Cg2p0B0u8m (talk) 10:08, 16 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]


I remember him conducting the Mahler Resurrection Symphony with his BBCSO in Manchester in later 1958 or early 1959, and accompanying Jacqueline Du Pre's London Royal Festival Hall debut with the Elgar Concerto in the early 1960s, and his utter lack of any inclination to showmanship or brilliance. It would seem that the story about his survival and Furtwangler's wife has an alternative explanation stemming from the account given by his stepson, Peter Ohlson - see https://www.nickchurchill.org.uk/rudolf-schwarz-from-belsen-to-bournemouth Delahays (talk) 20:24, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
