When Constantin Silvestri died in a London hospital on 23 February 1969 at the tragically early age of 55, he had truly achieved an iconic status in the British seaside resort of Bournemouth, where in the eight years of his music directorship he had singlehandedly transformed the Symphony Orchestra from a good but fundamentally locally known group into an internationally acclaimed ensemble of striking flexibility and virtuosity. At a time when, with the notable exception of Sir John Barbirolli's Hallé players in Manchester, orchestras in the British provinces were on the whole rightly or wrongly considered somewhat vin ordinaire, Silvestri's impact and influence in Bournemouth brought its orchestra a level of brilliance, sonority, charisma and discipline that was felt to be unprecedented in the town.

Musicians, critics and audiences marvelled at the kaleidoscopic range of expressive colours, intense dynamic contrasts, virtuoso articulation, and — usually — outstanding precision of ensemble, all delivered within a perfectly integrated and immaculately tuned homogeneity. Silvestri had fanatically pursued these elements in his meticulously demanding rehearsals, but most significant of all was that for the audience they were the channel for interpretations of vivid imagination, whitehot temperament and deeply poetic artistry sometimes controversial but usually electrifying.

He had created a very strong impression when he made his British debut conducting the London Philharmonic Orchestra, in Vienna, at the direction of the Wiener Philharmoniker and he had also made a great impact in Paris conducting the Orchestre National de France in concerts and an EMI Classics recording of Dvořák's Symphony No.9 ('From the New World'), which won the Charles Cros Academy first prize.
