Post Subject: A great conductor - but almost unknown - Anton NanutPosted by JANDL100 on: 9/27/2007
Does anyone else here share my passion for Anton Nanut?  Long-term conductor of the Ljubliana SO.   Now deceased.

His Beethoven is superb.  Nanut's is my fave version of the 7th.  I've only ever found 1 to 8, never seen a 9th by him.

Sadly he only recorded one Bruckner symphony, as far as I am aware - the 8th.  Stunningly good.  2nd rate orchestra, 1st rate performance.

Mahler 6th sym? - look no further.  Exciting, tense, dramatic - and great sound too.  OK, he could relax a bit more at times, but well worth acquiring.

His recordings are usually to be found on super-budget labels.  These really are too good to miss!
