Beethoven Symphony No- 9 -Blu-ray-

From insights into Beethoven's musical thinking to interpretational comparisons, including excerpts from performances by Karajan, Bernstein, Järvi, to historical perspectives - no aspect of Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 will remain untreated! "Thielemann's reading of the Beethoven symphonies stands heads and shoulders above the countless and mostly undistinguishable versions on offer." Die Presse
