The conductor Sergiu Celibidache was a legend inhis own lifetime, mesmerising orchestras with his intensity and brilliance, both in rehearsals and inperformances - which were always conducted from memory. These recordings pair the first of Mozart's last three symphonies, which Misha Donat puts "among musical historys most miraculous feats of concentrated inspiration" with Schubert's second Symphony, an extraordinary work from a 17-year-old. The Celibidache Symphonic Series celebrates the historic release on DVD of rare footage of the few performances ever recorded for television.
