Perhaps nobody in the second half of the twentieth century more completely dominated European orchestral music
than the great conductor, director, and teacher Herbert von Karajan. This DVD package, focusing on an artistically sensitive biographical film, offers unusually thoughtful and compelling views of a man who embodied the grandest of the classical traditions. Herbert von Karajan: A Portrait departs from clichéd images of this imposing and charismatic artist, looking behind the drama of his style and the superstardom of his career to rehabilitate his reputation as technically and aesthetically one of the most proficient conductors of his time. Archival footage of Karajan leading a variety of orchestras - from his renowned Berlin Philharmonic to the European Community Youth Orchestra - show him as not only extraordinarily intense and powerful but also warm and engaging. Seiji Ozawa and Anne-Sophie Mutter, among other star musicians and former students, evoke the seminal influence of Karajan in their lives with anecdotes and reminiscences both humorous and moving, and Karajan himself describes his youth and early struggles. (We also see him teaching master classes and directing opera.)
