Sir John Barbirolli, born as Giovanni Battista Barbirolli in London (1899-1970) was a conductor and cellist. Earlier in his career he was Arturo Toscanini's successor as music director of the New York Philharmonic, serving there from 1936 to 1943. He was also chief conductor of the Houston Symphony from 1961 to 1967. In March 1937 the Scottish Orchestra under Barbirolli played in the Empire Theatre in Inverness. The hall was packed. Beethoven and Mozart figured in the presentation and it was reported Barbirolli was delighted with the response of the Inverness audience.
