Abstract

In the twentieth century, symphony orchestras from Germany and Austria embarked on extended tours within Europe and to North and Latin America, Asia, and Africa. In this global history of classical music and its traveling performers, Friedemann Pestel sheds light on cultural diplomacy, the music market, repertoires, audience reactions, and the global careers of conductors and orchestra musicians.
