Arturo Toscanini - Cherubini, Haydn & Others- Orchestral Works (2022) [Official Digital Download]

He was born in a tailor's family. At the age of nine, he was admitted to the Royal School of Music in Parma. Studying in cello, piano and composition classes, he received a scholarship at the age of eleven, and at thirteen began performing as a professional cellist. In 1885, at the age of 18, he graduated with honors from the Conservatory in Parma in the cello class with L. Carini; even as a student, he led a small orchestra organized by him from fellow students . After graduating from the Conservatory, he was accepted into the traveling Italian opera troupe as a cello concertmaster, assistant choirmaster and correpetitor. In 1886, the troupe went to Rio de Janeiro for the winter season; during these tours, on June 25, 1886, due to arguments between the company's permanent conductor, managers and the public, Toscanini had to stand at the conductor's desk during the performance of Giuseppe Verdi's Aida. He recited the opera by heart. Thus began his conducting career, to which he devoted about 70 years.
Toscanini received his first Italian engagement in Turin. Over the next 12 years, he conducted in 20 Italian cities and towns, gradually gaining a reputation as the best conductor of his time. He conducted the world premiere of Ruggero Leoncavallo's Pagliacci in Milan (1892); he was invited to conduct the first performance of Giacomo Puccini's La Boheme in Turin (1896). Since 1896 he also performed in symphonic concerts; in 1898 he performed Tchaikovsky's 6th Symphony for the first time in Italy.
