Sir Georg Solti talks to Michael Berkeley about his student days in pre-war Hungary, where his teachers included Bartok and Kodaly, his hair-raising escape from Budapest just as the Nazis moved in, and his long career since as one of the world's foremost conductors, particularly noted for his pioneering opera recordings, from Mozart and Beethoven to Wagner and Strauss.
