On 20th January, Juanita left Spain with their eldest daughter, Ana María, to travel to Switzerland where she was to undergo surgery on her vertebrae. Argenta drove them to the airport at nine that morning, and then went straight to a rehearsal with his orchestra at the Teatro Real. The programme for the following Friday and Sunday was to include works by Mozart, Vivaldi, and Schumann’s “Rhenish” 3rd Symphony. Cristobal Halffter was present at the rehearsal, eager to maintain a close relationship to Argenta, his next work soon to be premiered in Madrid, “Two movements for timbal and strings”. That same afternoon, Argenta had an interview with a journalist, and around 8pm he departed for his house in the countryside in the locality of Los Molinos outside of Madrid, to pick up a score which he had left there by mistake. That night he did not return home.
It was on the cold Tuesday morning of 21st January 1958, that Ataulfo Argenta’s lifeless body was found by one of the builders who were working in the house.

管他咋死的，阿根塔同志的过早离世，都对二十世纪的指挥事业造成了不小的损失，更是西班牙人民的损失。他的柴可夫斯基小协（与坎波利合作），还有柏辽兹《幻想交响曲》都相当优秀！当然了，那张著名的《西班牙》还用说吗！作者: morefeel 时间: 2010-12-12 19:57
