"That Nuremberg concert was supposed to be on Hitler's birthday, so my father scheduled it the day before, thinking Hitler would not attend. He was so furious when Hitler came to the concert that he pulled a radiator off the wall. Furtwängler came on the stage and told his musicians to begin right away. But after the concert, Hitler gave him his hand and he had to shake it. If you don't know the story, then it is easy to get the wrong idea from the photo."
