Herbert von Karajan. Maestro for the screen

Description

Herbert von Karajan was the important conductor, who created film and later video productions on his own responsibility. 'I am actually born too early', he said, well knowing, that the video possibilities were still in their very beginnings. Georg Wuebbolt made interviews with Karajan's team: his Director of photography, his cutter, his secretary, his producer and musicians of Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra and Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. This documentary includes outstanding performance material from the Unitel and Telemondial library, as well as unreleased digitally remastered excerpts from the legendary RBB (SFB) and ORF archive.
