Karajan in rehearsal Beethoven 5th Symphony 1/2 (french)

It's a half tone sharp. Must be in the video editing, because the instruments would not have been tuned like this :-)

Fantastic. Thanks for sharing this jewel with us!

La bêtise étant plus forte que l'intelligence, le présentateur arrive même à contaminer Karajan

Henri-Georges Clouzot, bête? ah tiens, c'est pas l'adjectif qui me serait venu naturellement... enfin bon, balancer comme ça sans argumenter, voilà qui est bien pratique...

BRILLANT!!!
