This time, I present the
American conductor Erich Kunzel, the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra and the vocal of
Kings Singer, in the album "Perform Music Of The Beatles", released
in 2001, in the United States, by the record company Telarc.
Conductor and arranger Erich Kunzel Junior was born in New York, on March 21, 1935 and died in Bar Harbor, on September 1, 2009. His first musical graduation took place at Dartmouth College and later at Harvard and Brown University.
From 1960 to 1965, he conducted the Rhode Island Philharmonic and from 1965 to 1977 he was the associate conductor of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra.
Since 1977, his recordings of popular classical music, by the Telarc record label, have been made, mostly, as director of the Pops Orchestra of Cincinnati. During this period he was the leading conductor of eight popular concerts. He also made innovative jazz recordings and conducted the National Symphony Orchestra on televised concerts.
In 1977, when the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra Council created the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra, he was appointed its music director. He made a historic and unprecedented feat with his orchestra, to become the first American to perform with an orchestra in China, in October 2005.
In 2006, he was awarded the National Medal of Arts. Practically, a year before he died, in June 2008, he conducted the Toronto Symphony Orchestra.
