Review by Claire Wetzel

The album The Hoffnung Music Festival Concert by Gerard Hoffnung is a masterpiece that showcases the brilliance of the maestro's music. The album features a collection of live recordings from the Hoffnung Music Festival Concert held at the Royal Festival Hall in London in 1956. The concert was a celebration of music and humor, and Hoffnung's unique style of conducting made it a memorable event.

The album features performances by some of the most talented musicians of the time, including the London Symphony Orchestra, the BBC Symphony Orchestra, and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. The music is a mix of classical pieces and humorous compositions that showcase Hoffnung's wit and humor.

The album is a must-have for classical music lovers and fans of Hoffnung's work. The recordings are of high quality, and the performances are outstanding. The album captures the essence of the concert and brings it to life for listeners.

I first heard this on the radio on John Cargher's program in the early 1960s. In 1977 when in London I attended an exhibition of Gerald Hoffnung's artworks, and there met Anetta Hoffnung. I still have the book 'The Boy and the Magic' by Colette which Hoffnung illustrated. Fond memories!

At music school the professor would play this and we had to write down as many of the pieces as we could. The most fun I've ever had with an exam!

The future members of Les Luthiers heard this in the house of Julio Kacz in early 1960s and started their own musical-humouristic project long ago. They're greats now! With a little help of Franz Reise... Reizen... Reisenztein. See Concierto Mpkstroff for more details.

Listen to the intonation and finesse of these musicians! Humor also has a place in serious playing. I have been listening to this music since college in the sixties! Fun!

Great stuff this! A true test on what you know... Get pencil and paper and try to list all the bits...

The Hoffnung Music Festivals are without equal! Crack me up always- but so well performed. Take the serious to the really ridiculous and beyond. A great absurd joyful point! True art.
