* Recordings & Discography - Wilhelm Furtwängler(4)
      from Wagner to Wolf

  • This discography is modified version of that originally compiled and updated by Zoltán ROCKENBAUER (CD section) and Károly DÁN (LP section) after John Hunt and René Trémine's Furtwängler Discography, under approval of Mr. DÁN.
  • See original ; Discography of WILHELM FURTWÄNGLER'S RECORDINGS
  • The aim and change of my modification of the original is ;
    1. Composer/works shortcut ; for easier browsing of this catalogue
    2. Deleting the info of some European labels(see the 'Hall of shame' page) and Hunt's discography number
    3. Adding new releases not included in the originals ; release after 1999 by Tahra, EMI, DG, and JP companies
    4. Adding infos of the recording producer / engineer
    5. Correction of some errors in original
  • Album numbers are linked to the jacket images in case I can get them.
  • I tried to include recently available CDs first in this page, but I excluded most of all items from such labels as Iron Needle, Enterprise, etc. If you'd like to know the reason, see Hall of Shame.
