TOSCANINI, by Harvey Sachs: Supplementary Chapters

CHRONOLOGICAL LIST OF ARTURO TOSCANINIS PUBLIC PERFORMANCES AS A
CONDUCTOR
Names of operas performed in their entirety are given in boldface, mainly in their original
languages, although all of the operas conducted by Toscanini in Italy and South America were
sung in Italian, except as otherwise indicated. Operas performed in other countries were sung in
their original languages. Names of principal cast members are given in parentheses: the womens
names are followed, after a semicolon, by the mens names. A slash between names indicates
singers alternating or being replaced in the same role. A number following the cast list indicates
how many performances were given of an opera within a given season; no number means that
the information has not been found.
WP = World Premiere; NP = National Premiere
The list does not include national anthems.
The list does not include recording sessions.

196 composers
115 operas by 53 composers. This figure includes 21 world premieres and 35 national premieres,
the latter split among Italy, Argentina, Uruguay, France, and the United States.
Approximately 530 concert pieces by 178 composers. This tally does not include overtures or
other excerpts from operas that Toscanini conducted in their entirety; if those overtures and other
excerpts are included within his concert repertoire, the figures rise to over 600 pieces by 184
composers.
