Swarowsky, Hans
Hans Swarowsky (September 16, 1899 – September 10, 1975) was an Austrian conductor of Hungarian birth and Jewish descent. He became a professor of conducting at the Vienna Music Academy. His many conducting students included Claudio Abbado, Zubin Mehta, Leonid Nikolaev, Paul Angerer, Ádámand Iván Fischer, Jesús López-Cobos, Gustav Meier, Miltiades Caridis, Aleksandr Alekseyev, Giuseppe Sinopoli, Gianluigi Gelmetti, Brian Jackson, Alfred Prinz, Bryan Fairfax, James Allen Gähres, Albert Rosen and Bruno Weil. Swarowsky's lectures and essays were collected into the publication Wahrung der Gestalt (Keeping Shape), which today serves as an encyclopaedia for performance and conducting.
