GG and his last conducting projects

["J. Scheuvens" <Scheuvens@EASYSIXT.DE>]

Hi f-minors,

Here is one off-topic question:

Who knows more about GG´s interests in conducting in his later life. I think
I´ve heard it in a german TV-broadcast, that GG has arranged two (?) dates
in order to conduct Beethovens Corelian and Mendelsohns Sommernachtstraum in
his last days before he died? Is this correct and wich
interpretation/recording is recommended to have a good taste ???

thanks for help

Jörg
