A new release in our digipack series « In Rehearsal & Performance » featuring works of the great conductors of the past. Carlos Kleiber was far too sensitive and self-critical to maintain an unbroken relationship with the public. He hated routine, and his appearances are often months apart - one of the reasons why his agreement to do this film recording was considered quite a coup. Kleiber’s distinctive qualities - his precision, politeness, charm, imagination and astonishing success at achieving the effects he desires - all come to the forefront in these uniquely memorable rehearsals and performances. Recorded in 1970.
