Herbert Von Karajan plays Jean Sibelius in London (II)

A lavish, first cohesive trilogy from Sibelius with its wild triumphant overtones. Karajan as guest conductor of Walter Legge’s superlative Philharmonia Orchestra which he had just assembled for the greater benefit of 20th century composers such as Bartók, Roussel and Stravinsky. A milestone performance.
