About

Filmed in 1966 on 35mm by film director Henry-Georges Clouzot, the creator of classic "films noirs" such as "Quai des Orfčvres" and "Wages of Fear".

Bonus:
- 24 minutes rehearsal Mozart, Violin Concerto No.5
- 15 minutes rehearsal Dvorák, Symphony No.9

Maestro Karajan does not stand in front of his Berliner Philharmoniker players, but among them – again and again the cameras capture him in spellbinding close-up. [...] Karajan and his musicians perform their wonderful Dvořák, while the viewer’s eyes are drawn to him.” - Stuttgarter Zeitung, 14.11.67

“...this is all captivating to watch and wonderful to listen to. And in this far-from-naturalistic and utterly cinematic context, he revels in the role of the conducting supremo.” - Libération, 30.10.95
