Herbert von Karajan was the first conductor to be obsessed with filming his own musical performances in order to preserve his cuItural heritage. As a film and TV director he was an aesthete, perfectionist, and true pioneer. This documentary starts with the very first concert productions in 1957 in Japan, folIowed by the impressive cooperation with director Henri-Georges CIouzot in 1965 to Karajan s own film company Telemondial. lt is absoluteIy fascinating to see how Karajan developed his Ianguage for filming orchestraI productions. IncIuding outstanding digitalIy remastered performance materiaI, taIks with Karajan, interviews with his cIosest coIlaborators and production partners, the documentary is an exciting part of the history of cIassical music and media. |
