Description: Mengelberg, Willem. (1871-1951). Signed Program. Signed program from a orchestral concert that the great Dutch conductor directed at the Augusteo, Accademia di S. Cecilia, in Rome, April 18, 1912. Bifolium. Signature in ink sideways to the right side of the first page. 9.75 x 6.75 inches (25 x 17 cm). Mengelberg's printed name is underlined in red crayon; slight foxing; else in very good condition. "Mengelberg was a virtuoso conductor whose desire to enhance the music's poetic content led to performances characterized by an acute attention to detail and sometimes startling tempo fluctuations. He had no hesitation about making alterations to scores (even Beethoven's), citing both the conductor's superior experience in the handling of the orchestra and his studies with Wüllner, who himself had studied with Beethoven's friend Schindler. Films of his recordings demonstrate a reasonably clear baton technique, dramatic cues and a tremendous dynamic energy." José A.
