Thanks, gabba, great stuff!!
I'm pretty sure that's Burt with Marlene because she said that she wouldn't do shows without him. Marlene was a legend even then... now imagine how great you'd have to be to get the job as conductor for her!!
The only thing I noticed was that Burt kept his hands a lot lower while conducting for her (in that clip) than he does when conducting for himself... his hand so way up. But this is understandable in that he didn't want any focus on himself while conducting for her.
There's a biography out recently about Marlene. I need to check it out because I'm sure Burt is mentioned. Those days travelling with her must have been something quite interesting to read about.
