George Enescu as a teenager playing for the Queen of Romania. A remarkable life, a remarkable composer. Essential reading : George Enescu : His Life and Music by Noel Malcolm, originally published in 1990 by Martin Anderson's Toccata Press and available via Boydell & Brewer .The book that got me hooked ! And below two clips. First Leopold Stokowski explaining and conducting Enescu's Romanian Rhapsody no 1 (1901) in Cologne in 1951, and second, Sergiu Celibidache conducting it in 1978
