Evgeny Mravinsky

Back


Yevgeny Mravinsky led the Leningrad Philharmonic for a whole fifty years. During his ebbing years, the gray-haired "patriarch" conducted sitting on a high chair, but no one ever saw this as a sign of frailty or old-age weakness. Mravinsky remained the towering giant he always was, admired and even idolized by everyone, above all his orchestra, which eagerly picked up his every gesture... Actually he could as well just sit there and look into their eyes to have everything done... Because Yevgeny Mravinsky spent most of his life behind Stalin's Iron Curtain, he was somewhat less known in Europe and America, compared to the other great 20th century conductors. Which is a great pity because he could have easily top that star-studded list...
