波蘭指揮家羅金斯基(Artur Rodziński, 1894-1958)指揮富含動力且充滿激情,是公認俄羅斯當代樂曲之權威。早年受到史托科夫斯基的賞識,將他帶到美國擔任自己的副手,使得他的音樂事業很快便起飛,之後獲得托斯卡尼尼的讚揚,被認為是他所處年代最偉大的管弦樂團締造者。生於斯帕拉托達爾瑪提亞(現屬南斯拉夫),卒於波士頓。曾獲維也納大學法學博士和維也納音樂學院博士學位。1921年在利沃夫以合唱指揮的身份登臺。1921-1924年擔任華沙愛樂管弦樂團指揮。
1925年羅金斯基前往美國發展。1926-1929年應史托科夫斯基之邀任費城管弦樂團助理指揮,並在費城寇第斯音樂學院任樂隊及歌劇系主任。1929-1933年任洛杉磯愛樂樂團指揮,並於1933年入籍美國。1933-1943年任克利夫蘭管弦樂團指揮。1937年,協助托斯卡尼尼組建美國國家廣播國家公司(NBC)交響樂團並任指揮。1943-1947年任紐約愛樂管弦樂團音樂指導,並邀請伯恩斯坦擔任樂團的助理指揮,他說:「我認識許多年輕的指揮,但最後上帝要我選擇伯恩斯坦。」而在此之前,羅金斯基完全沒有看過伯恩斯坦的指揮。後因與紐約愛樂的董事會發生衝突而離開。1947-50年間擔任芝加哥交響樂團的音樂總監。之後多在歐洲各地指揮。
