Talk:Arthur Nikisch

message: His violin teacher in 1866 would have to have been Josef Hellmesberger Sr., because J.H. Jr. was only 11 years old at the time which was the same age as Nikisch.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.43.178.47 (talk) 18:32, 28 October 2022 (UTC)

message: I have a source that says the Beethoven recording was in 1909, but other language wikis say 1913. I'll do more research. David Brooks 07:28, 31 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: 1913 is correct, but it's not the first recording of a complete symphony, so I've removed that assertion.  Beethoven's Fifth was recorded in 1910 by the Grosses Odeon Streich-Orchester.  I don't have the sources handy, but The Orchestra on Record (Arnold) or The Fabulous Phonograph (Gelatt) will confirm this.  ReverendWayne (talk) 19:39, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Beethoven recording 

message: The recording of the Beethoven 5th was made by Deutsche Grammophon on 10 November 1913. I've never seen an EMI reissue as DG has owned the rights for it since its original recording date. I assumed this was common knowledge, but details are on the DG website, under "About Us".  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.197.205.35 (talk) 16:50, 5 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: At the time, Deutsche Grammophon was (if I'm remembering correctly) 60 percent owned by the Gramophone Company in England, with the other 40 percent ownership being German.  During the war, the company was taken over as enemy property and later sold to Polyphon.  In later years, both EMI and DG have claimed copyright in the Nikisch recording.  Both companies issued it on LP.  Since then, the recording has fallen into the public domain in some countries, and there have been independent CD issues such as the one by Symposium in England.

message: Some other versions and languages of Wikipedia show nationalities similar to these for his parents, except they are reversed - saying his mother was from Hungary. I have no clue who is right, if anyone is, but clearly someone somewhere has it wrong. TooManyFingers (talk) 17:13, 12 November 2021 (UTC)

message: Albert Heinig is not listed on the Leipzig Gewandhausorchester's historical list of directors.
All other sources I can find that he did in fact succeed Nikisch appear to be sourced from this article.
