Roumanian born conductor, Sergiu Celibidache (1912-1996) refused to record any of his performances.

Music includes: Mozart quartet in D minor (K, 421); symphony in C major, 'Jupiter' (K, 551); requiem in D minor (K, 626). Also, Haydn symphony no. 92 in G major 'Oxford', Beethoven quartet in D major, op. 18, no. 3; Schubert symphony #5 in B flat major, Bruckner symphony #9 in D minor and, finally, Bartok concerto for orchestra.
