Description:

Herbert von Karajan, the great conductor of the 20th century, reigned supreme in the classical music world with his outstanding musicianship and charisma. From the "Karajan's Legacy" series, which Karajan worked on energetically during the last years of his life in the 1980s, this performance of Beethoven's Violin Concerto features Karajan's treasured child, Anne-Sophie Mutter. In response to Karajan's large-scale conducting, Mutter has increased her concentration on the sound and pursued the quintessence of the music even more deeply. The way the conductor and soloist respond to each other can be seen not only in the sound but also in the video, giving the audience a more than adequate taste of the concerto's real appeal.
