Subject: Stokowski, Leopold (1882-1977) --Conductors (Music) --United States --Biography. Summary: The mystery of Leopold Stokowski intrigued the entire world in his ninety-five year lifetime. A pioneer in the art of conducting and in the new technologies of recording, radio, and film, this master showman packed the halls and captured the hearts of rapt listeners everywhere in performances of the beloved classics and the perplexing moderns. Stokowski's fascinating life, which mirrored the conflicts of our chaotic century, is presented with insight and passion in this first large-scale study by Abram Chasins, himself a noted musician and for more than half a century a colleague and friend of the Maestro. This is the profile of a classical superstar whose accent was as phony as his dedication to music was genuine, whose loyalties to friends were as fierce as they were fleeting, whose defiance of tradition became his version of the norm.
