Editorial Reviews:

This performance is also available on Deutsche Grammophon in an earlier, mid-price incarnation, but this version is clearly the one to own, since the remastered sound is a definite improvement over previous issues. Herbert von Karajan always did a good job with this symphony, and his performances are quite consistent, even down to the very backward-balance of the chorus. By general consensus, though, this is the best of them. i--David Hurwitz/i

4 out of 5 stars 9th Symphony   December 22, 2007
Mario Pankov
My CD just arrived. The shipping was fast, I am happy with it. The recording quallity is very good. However, Karajan appears to lead the orchestra in a quite cold manner. It is very precise, too precise. The symphony does not sound lively, there is no emotion in it.

The Symphony No.9 of Beethoven is one of great works of classic music. The interpretation is excellent on the part of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. br /

James A. Vasquez
Karajan is, of course, one of the premier symphony conductors of the last 50 years. He does not disappoint with this recording of what some consider the pinnacle of the world of symphonies. Every movement is masterful and inspiring.
