- Herbert von Karajan (German pronunciation: [ˈhɛɐbɛɐt fɔn ˈkaʁaˌjan]; born Heribert, Ritter von Karajan; 5 April 1908 – 16 July 1989) was an Austrian conductor. He was principal conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic for 35 years. He is generally regarded as one of the greatest conductors of the 20th century, and he was a dominant figure in European classical music from the 1960s until his death.[1] Part of the reason for this was the large number of recordings he made and their prominence during his lifetime. By one estimate he was the top-selling classical music recording artist of all time, having sold an estimated 200 million records.[2]
- He attended the Mozarteum Conservatory at the age of five. He took the name "Hammerklavier" seriously at that age and successfully replaced the hammers of all the pianos at the conservatory with actual construction hammers at the age of 15. Due to this act, he was punished to eat manuscripts of Beethoven's music for the remainder of his life, and he was immediately promoted to the position of chief conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.
