Czech Philharmonic Orchestra dates: the Czech Philharmonic's website gives Kubelik's dates as 1942-1948 and says nothing about 1936-39, which is assigned to Vaclav Talich. Is there any reference supporting Kubelik leading the Czech Phil in 1936-9? Grover cleveland 09:10, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Britannica says 36-39 he was conductor at Czech filharmonia but not the leading one, an article on (typically reliable) Czech radio website (in English) [1] says He succeeded Vaclav Talich as chief conductor at the age of 28. Pavel Vozenilek 22:36, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
The biography on website http://www.kubelik.org/ says more less the same. Pavel Vozenilek 22:38, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

The biography on www.kubelik.org is still in construction. It will be soon checked by Kubelik's son.

Curious the discography lists none of the celebrated CSO recordings engineered by Robert Fine. They were miles ahead of the competition in sound quality and popular as demos in audio stores. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Barnaby the Scrivener (talkcontribs) 19:18, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
