He studied in Berlin and, from 1945 to 1952, he was principal conductor of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. He later worked with a string of radio orchestras in Stockholm, Stuttgart and Paris. From 1979 until his death he was principal conductor of the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra and from 1983 he taught at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Celibidache disliked recording, preferring the immediacy of live concerts. As a result, very few recordings of his conducting were officially sanctioned during his lifetime, and those that have been released since his death have mainly been of broadcast performances.
Notable releases have been his Munich performances of Bruckner, Brahms, Schumann, Bach, Faure and a series of live performances with the London Symphony Orchestra.da:Sergiu Celebidache de:Sergiu Celibidache es:Sergiu Celibidache ja:セルジュ・チェリビダッケ pl:Sergiu Celibidache ro:Sergiu Celibidache
