Société Wilhelm Furtwangler

The SWF was born on 25 January 1969, with the initial goal of publishing the RAI edition of the « Ring ». The goal has rapidly grown with:
• The publication of LPs The publication of LPs; then, as of 1988, the publication of CDs. There are a few key publications which deserve specific attention: for instance, the October 1951 concert in Hamburg, or the Paris concert in 1954.
• Publication of studies related to Furtwängler’s activities: Furtwängler in France, in Italy, in Switzerland, in Lübeck, through his correspondence…
• without delay, but taking its time, the SWF has engaged in the digital turn. The website, with its multiple sections and the wealth of its documentation reflects this momentum. One can find the newsletters, always a link between the Society and its membership.
