Süddeutsche Philharmonie

A fictitious orchestra invented by [a=Alfred Scholz] and used as a fake orchestra credit in many of his productions, also appears as South German Philharmonic. If the attribution is correct - this was originally a short-lived pick-up ensemble assembled by Scholz before 1968 and mainly consisting of members of the German Philharmonic in Prague who were expelled from Czechoslovakia after World War II and later became the core of the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra ([a833686]). Most of the South German Philharmonic performances are analog recordings made between 1968 and 1970 for [l119187] and Primaton and by the Austrian Radio ([l34957]) and [l305946] (SWF) prior to 1977.
