The Saturday Alternative: Celibidache Conducts

on BBC Two England

Bruckner's Fourth Symphony
Anton Bruckner wrote nine symphonies. Number 4, in E flat, was written in 1874 with later revisions and, with its abundance of melodic invention, is called 'The Romantic'.
The great Romanian conductor Sergiu Celibidache first came to prominence as a conductor with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra immediately after the war.
Tonight he conducts the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, leader Werner Großholz, in this recording made in the Herkulessaal, Munich. Directed for ZDF by Klaus Lindemann
"Celibidache's reputation has achieved legendary proportions." (International Herald Tribune)
