{"Image DocumentName": "Oct 21st-Concert by Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra", "Image ImageDescription": "The Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra is the oldest civic concert orchestra in the world. Few other orchestras have contributed as much to the development of the symphonic musical tradition as the Gewandhaus Orchestra. For example, it performed all of Beethoven s symphonies during the composer s lifetime. The orchestra also presented the world s first complete Bruckner cycle as well as the first Shostakovich cycle during the 1970s. The orchestra boasts an exceptionally wide repertoire and an unusually large number of performances. Felix Mendelssohn, Arthur Nikisch, Wilhelm Furtw\u00e4ngler and Bruno Walter number among the most distinguished Gewandhaus Music Directors. Since September 2005, Riccardo Chailly has held the posts of 19th Gewandhaus Music Director and General Music Director of the Leipzig Opera.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
