Daniel Barenboim in 1990 (Jim Steere photo for Erato)
On March 15, 1990—at the beginning of an open rehearsal for donors and patrons—the Orchestral Association announced that the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under its music director designate Daniel Barenboim would record exclusively for Erato Records. This would be the label’s first exclusive association with a major American orchestra, and it would begin with the world premiere of the Symphony no. 1 by John Corigliano, the Orchestra’s first composer-in-residence.
A complete list of Barenboim’s catalog with the CSO on Erato is below (all recordings were made in Orchestra Hall).
