Conductor Josef Krips had a long and varied career, despite it being interrupted by two world wars. The artist revolved in and around various Viennese ensembles: from Vienna Volksoper, to Vienna Staatsoper and the Vienna Philharmonic. This dedication to the Viennese styles is reflected in many of his recordings as well.
