André Cluytens
Augustin Zulma Alphonse "André" Cluytens (French: [ɑ̃dʁe klɥitɛ̃s], Dutch: [ˈɑndreː ˈklœytəns]; 26 March 1905 – 3 June 1967) was a Belgian-born French conductor who was active in the concert hall, opera house and recording studio. His repertoire extended from Viennese classics through French composers to 20th century works. Although much of his career was spent in France, he was the first French conductor at Bayreuth in 1955; he also conducted The Ring and Parsifal at La Scala.
