5.0 out of 5 stars Priceless footage, September 30, 1999

This review is from: Cleveland Orchestra, The - A Portrait of George Szell - The Bell Telephone Hour [VHS] (VHS Tape)

George Szell was one of the greatest conductors of the 20th century, and this video contains sensational rehearsal and performance footage of performances of Beethoven's 5th, Brahms' "Academic Festival Overture," and even a bit of the Berg Violin Concerto. The video is a must for anyone who appreciates what *The Penguin Stereo Record Guide* calls "Szell's extraordinary achievement in Cleveland." Please note that the video is composed of a 1966 television special on Szell and the Cleveland, produced for "The Bell Telephone Hour."
