The roar of a "hero" filled with the weight of history
Maestro Furtwängler and the Vienna Philharmonic portray extreme tension and deep spirituality.
The energy unique to live recordings and the intense determination infused into each and every note overwhelm the listener. Furtwängler's unique tempo and the lustrous sound of the Vienna Philharmonic's strings fully convey Beethoven's innovative spirit. The dramatic development from the deep sadness of the Funeral March to the joy of the final movement is truly the pinnacle of artistry.
