About

These recordings document readings that are the fruit of decades of Claudio Abbado’s involvement with Beethoven. Listening to the music, one can hear how the Berlin Philharmonic transform Abbado’s musical intentions into sound – in an accord forged through many years of shared artistic experience and attention to detail.
 
The success of these live performances was overwhelming: there were standing ovations after each concert, and the critics spoke of seminal moments in the history of music - Abbado's cycle will become a milestone of contemporary interpretation!
 
As a special feature, this DVD offers the “Conductor Camera”. This innovation shows the maestro from the front; an orchestral musician’s eye view! (Beethoven No.3)
 
Vigorous and magnificent, furiously direct - but at the same time blessed with an astounding richness of detail...”  Süddeutsche Zeitung
 
The most wonderful symphonic cycle of the past decade!”  La Repubblica
 
Recorded live at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Rome, 9 February 2001 (Symphony No.3) and at the Philharmonie, Berlin, 1 May 2000 (Symphony No.9)
