The pre-Chicago Solti was a great conductor. Virtually anything he did in the 40's and 50's is worth hearing. Try the Mahler 4 with Stahlman for starters. His 1958 "Rheingold" (with a dream cast including Flagstad's ineffable Fricka)is a desert island disc.This is someone who apprenticed with Toscanini, a young man with real fire in his belly. After the mid-sixties this went away, replaced by routine. Compare the 1958-64 Ring to the 1982 remake of bleeding chunks with the VPO. Shocking decline from both director and orchestra is readily apparent.
