masur5PEENEMUENDE: German conductor Kurt Masur, 85, frail but feisty as he opened the Usedom Music Festival in Germany by leading the Baltic Youth Philharmonic in Shostakovich's First Symphony, attributed his recovery after a severe fall partly to the power of music.

Masur injured his shoulder when he fell off a stage in Paris in April.

He had to be helped to the podium on Saturday night for the opening concert in the vast turbine hall of a former power station that served the Nazi rocket program on the Baltic Sea island during World War Two.
