Stanislaw Skrowaczewski SaarbrŸken Radio Symphony Orchestra

Stanisław Skrowaczewski commands a rare position in the international musical scene, being both a renowned conducting figure and highly-regarded composer. During his long and distinguished career, he has conducted all the top orchestras, and—in his 92nd year— retains a busy schedule with guest engagements taking him across North America, Europe and Japan. His complete recordings of Bruckner’s symphonies with the Saarbrücken Radio Symphony Orchestra (now Deutsche Radio Philharmonie Saarbrücken Kaiserslautern) for Arte Nova Classics (now OehmsClassics) received enormous critical acclaim; among its honors, the 2002 Cannes Classical Award in the ‘Orchestral 18/19th Century’ category and inclusion in BBC Music Magazine’s ‘Top Ten Discs of the Decade’. Mr. Skrowaczewski’s interpretations of Bruckner, of particular note within his extensive discography, have also earned him the Bruckner Society of America’s Kilenyi Medal of Honor and the Gold Medal of the Mahler-Bruckner Society.
