Otto Klemperer
Otto Klemperer's Long Journey Through His Times
Album DE 2016 on Arthaus Musik label
Classical (Classical)
Otto Klemperer (1885-1973) was undoubtedly one of the most important and influential conductors of the 20th century. His interpretations of Beethoven, Brahms, Bruckner and Mahler still set standards for conductors today. In Philo Bregstein's film "Otto Klemperer's Long Journey Through His Times" - restored re-edited and finally available again after twenty years - one closely follows Klemperer's extraordinary career from pre-war Germany to exile in the USA, back to post-war Hungary and lastly to London and his long Indian Summer there, documented in great detail and with copious, often unique archive material. Klemperer- The Last Concert shows exclusive film footage of rehearsals and part of the conductor's final concert on September 26, 1971 in London in a documentary that one could view as Klemperer's musical testament on film. A special feature of this set is a 180-page book (60 pages each for English, French and German) bringing together introductions by the director and his team, special contributions by renowned musicologists and a collection of rarely seen photographs covering Klemperer's entire career. To this Arthaus has added the complete audio recording digitally remastered on 2 CDs of the last concert from London, and never before seen filmed interviews with Pierre Boulez and Ernst Bloch from 1972
