Karajan - Beethoven Symphony No. 7

@Myusikme It's now known that Karajan was no Nazi,
I can not believe the unfounded criticism laid at Karajan.
I recall being in the British Civil Service Overseas Aid Scheme in Zambia 1972 where we were obliged to join Zambian UNIP Political Party if we were to avail ourselves of the purchase of food etc. Our Zambian Party Card had to be shown at the checkout. Did we have an interest in UNIP? No of course not. Did Karajan have any interest in the Nazi Party? Of course not!
Go figure!"

rufus888 Re your comment on 'closed eyes'
You are correct in that Karajan needed to make eye contact with the orchestra. This was done at rehersals, During the performance itself it was quite unnecessary.

i agree with you....=]

wow.. and i mean WOW!

are we commenting on Beethoven or the spelling of people? I am confused.

par coeur... génial ;)

TAKE IT EASY GUYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

hois...this is NAZI
Beethoven proclama a partilha entre a Humanidade! A musica também é palavra entre as Pessoas e SIM, ESTE, é um lugar onde se partilham ideias e Sentimentos e um LUGAR ONDE TODOS SOMOS IGUAIS!
Se não gostas não venhas aqui!
Este não é definitivamente UM SÍTIO PARA PESSOAS COMO TU!
GET A LIFE!
