Georg Tintner is recognized among Jewish contributors to Arts & Literature — Orchestra conductor
Tintner was an orchestral conductor especially admired for his interpretations of Bruckner, whose symphonies he recorded as a complete cycle late in life to wide acclaim. Born to a Jewish family in Vienna, he fled the Nazis and built his career in New Zealand, Australia, South Africa and finally Canada. His readings combined scholarly fidelity with deep expressive warmth.
