Movie Reviews of Herbert Von Karajan
Movie Review: Herbert von Karajan 100th birthday
Summary: 5 Stars
Herbert von Karajan had a long career as a conductor of opera and symphonic music.The producers of this dvd had a huge set of films, interviews and dvd productions to compress into a manageable amount of time. My hat off to their editor! This documentary only hinted at the estrangement that developed in the last years of his life with the Berlin Philharmonic over something (the appointment of Sabine Mayer)that never should have gone as far as it did. Not quite mentioned is the surgery on his back at a time when he nearly lost his life. It may have affected his personality. But, we were all enriched by his performances and the quality he established with his operatic productions at Salzburg.
Summary of Herbert Von Karajan
First release in any format! Not just a biographical film,Karajan uncovers the true, personal essence of the unique
artist behind the public figure, a portrait of a man who was
full of contradictions and remained a mystery until his death.
On the occasion of the 100th birthday of Herbert von
Karajan, Academy Award? nominee Robert Dornhelm
has mined the archives of Unitel, for more than two decades
the great conductor s production home, for previously
unreleased material including rehearsal footage, and
interviews with members of the Karajan family, plus such
music world luminaries and colleagues as Anne-Sophie
Mutter, Seiji Ozawa, Christian Thielemann, Ren? Kollo,
Christa Ludwig, Brigitte Fassbaender, Gundula Janowitz,
Sir Simon Rattle, Mariss Jansons, Joachim Kaiser and
Helmut Schmidt.
The greater understanding of this legendary artist to be
experienced by seeing this film will certainly transfer to a
greater appreciation of his recordings, and is a must not only
for Karajan lovers, but for anyone who loves symphonic music.
