『ウィーン・フィルとともに ワルター・バリリ回想録』
 □ワルター・バリリ著、岡本和子訳(音楽之友社・2520円)


グーグって見るとウェッブにも掲載。
また、回想録の中身そのものの紹介もあり。
やはり、第一大戦後の混乱から、第二次大戦終結までの
オーストリアの激動の時代が生の声で書かれて
いるようです。
1945年4月10日にソ連軍がウィーンに侵攻、
4月27日にはウィーンフィルの戦後初の公演開催
とのこと。
ソ連占領の混乱のなかでも、わずか、17日で公演を
再開できたこと。多分、米ソの政治的なかけひきとか、
裏にあったと思いますが、人間の生命力の強さを
示してます。

[edit]Training
Walter Barylli was born in Vienna on 16 June 1921.[1] He studied at the Vienna Music Academy with the Philharmonic Konzertmeister Franz Mairecker, and inMunich with Florizel von Reuter, a violinist who had achieved outstanding success early in life. Von Reuter took the fifteen-year-old boy into his own home at Munich so that he could continue his studies without excessive expense to his parents.

[edit]Career
In 1936 Barylli gave his first public performance as a soloist in Munich, and made his first gramophone recordings in Berlin. Over the next two years he made an international career as a soloist. F. Mairecker advised him that in autumn 1938 a first violin desk would become available with the Vienna Philharmonic. Travelling to the audition at Vienna by train from Stuttgart on 12 March 1938 he became aware of the preparations for the invasion of Austria and realised he must make his career with an orchestra rather than as a travelling soloist: he won the place and became a member of the VPO.

During the War he first brought the Barylli Quartet together. He re-founded it in 1945, but its life in public performance lay mainly between 1951 and 1960.[2] The group became the 'home' quartet of the Vienna Musikverein. They performed in Europe and overseas, and made several appearances at the Salzburg Festivals. The group concentrated on classic repertoire, especially Beethoven, Mozart, Schumann, Schubert and Brahms. They collaborated with Antoine de Bavier, Jorg Demus,Paul Badura-Skoda, Edith Farnadi and Wilhelm Huebner.

Barylli won the Kreisler Prize of the City of Vienna[3] twice.[4] He retired in 1973 and taught at the City of Vienna Conservatory from 1969 until 1986. He celebrated his 90th birthday in 2011.

Walter Barylli is the father of actor and playwright Gabriel Barylli (b. 1957).[5]
