Celibidache

Rating:
Summary: from newtonian to yin and yang nature of music
Review: the dvd is about the relationship (of unity) between master and apprentice, music and its enablers, tension and resolve.

interesting window into the personality of celibidache.

the forms through which celibidache is being explained tell us something about the youth of serge ioan. the overall statement of the package is rather remarkable--profound and honest.

the english translation for the dvd is mostly accurate--however, celibidache's opinion about the american interprets of classical music is translated as an opinon about all interprets of classical music.

rather simple book--alas misspelled. does not contribute a whole lot to the economy of the package.

watching this dvd, aka the gardens of celibidache, i became aware of the source of some unjust characterizations of celibidache--chief amongst being lebrecht's in maestro's myth. but, not unlike most great personalities/works celi/this dvd feeds detractos as well as the rest.
