Beethoven Symphony No. 9 (31/12/1977)

Production : Deutsche Grammophon

Synopsis

Karajan's very best video Beethoven 9th Symphony, recorded December 31, 1977. The Quartet of vocal soloists and Chorus in IV are superb. This is much better than Karajan's 1968 Berlin Philharmonic Beethoven 9 video (DG), filmed in the Philharmonie with no live audience present.

Herbert von Karajan

José van Dam

Agnes Baltsa

Anna Tomowa-Sintow
