Beethoven must have dreamt of that one,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Herbert Von Karajan - His Legacy for Home Video: Ludwig Van Beethoven - Violin Concerto (DVD)
I have heard many recordings of Beethoven's masterpiece. But this is notjust one of the good ones .....it is THE ONE. The combination of Berlin, Karajan and last but definitely not least, Anne-Sophie Mutter makes this the best music DVD I have ever seen and listened to. Not only is the orchestra perfect, the violin takes the music to new heights and on top of all, the camera is never intrusive, but always there where the action is. If you are looking for a perfect concert and love the violin.............this is it. The best $ 20 I have ever spent! Beethoven must be smiling!

Karajan and Mutter create magic,
By
This review is from: Herbert Von Karajan - His Legacy for Home Video: Ludwig Van Beethoven - Violin Concerto (DVD)
When Karajan was working on his Legacy video series in the '80s, he was criticized for his narcisstic obsession with the medium of the music video and his detail-oriented, painstaking recording style. Also, especially for the Beethoven interpretations, he was said to be beyond his prime. Wrong! The series as a whole is an outstanding collection of wonderful interpetations that I would rank with some of his best stuff from the 50s and 60s. Furthermore, the recording of the Beethoven violin concerto truely brings out the almost magic connection between young virtuoso Mutter and the great master. They did many wonderful recordings together, but this has got to be one of the absolute best. Recording and sound quality of the video are outstanding as well. Karajan was very much ahead of his time every step of the way. A treasure!

Quantitative Evaluation,
By Professor Ahmet Alp Sayar (Istanbul, Turkey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Herbert Von Karajan - His Legacy for Home Video: Ludwig Van Beethoven - Violin Concerto (DVD)
Audio Merits:9/10; Video Merits:9/10; Cinematographic Merits:8/10; Musical Merits:10/10; Overal Artistic Performance:10/10; DVD Extras: 8/10; Recording Total Quality:9/10. Professor's Comment: LWBeethoven, HvKarajan, ASMutter have been considered as the ultimate masters of their genres. BPO is the greatest classical orchestra ever ensembled. It is to be noted that there is a veiled name who had contributed to produce these references: Dr. Günter Hermanns, Recording Engineer of the Legacy Serie. His contribution deserves great appreciation.
