Christian Thielemann joins forces with the prestigious Wiener Philharmoniker in a unique and monumental project BEETHOVEN 9, their first-ever recording of all 9 Symphonies in full high definition and Surround Sound. This recording from the Golden Hall of Vienna¡äs Musikverein is accompanied by nine() hour-long documentaries, one on each symphony, featuring Christian Thielemann and Germany¡äs most eminent music critic, Prof. Joachim Kaiser. From insights into Beethoven¡äs musical thinking to interpretational comparisons, including excerpts form legendary performances by Karajan, Bernstein, B?hm, J?rvi etc., to historical perpsectives - no aspect of Beethoven¡äs symphonic oeuvre will remain untreated This Blu-ray contains Beethoven Symphonies 7, 8 & 9

One of the (many) glories of the new Beethoven Symphony cycle on Blu-ray from conductor Christain Thielemann and the Vienna Philharmonic is the inclusion of absolutely incredible, in depth musicological analyses of each of the symphonies, presented as bonus documentaries on each disc. With noted (no pun intended) music historian Joachim Kaiser as guide and interviewer, these documentaries are a feast for the ears while also being an incredible source of background information. Kaiser spends a little bit of time in one of the documentaries on this new Blu-ray featuring Beethoven final triumvirate of symphonies lamenting the "artificial" division of Beethoven's oeuvre into three periods. Similarly, there often seems to be an equally artificial division with regard to the symphonies themselves, with the nonet being sliced and diced into three parts of three each. What is even stranger is that within each of these artificial triptychs, one "panel" tends to be overlooked, no doubt unfairly, in favor of its two more supposedly impressive brethren. Therefore when looking at the first three symphonies, often the Second is ignored at the expense of the rule-breaking First and the literally heroic Third. In our second trio, the Fourth never seems to muster the attention that the iconic Fifth and alternately lilting and stormily pastoral Sixth do. With regard to the final third, for some reason the Eighth gets the short shrift when bookended by, to quote Kaiser again, the "temperamental radiance" of the Seventh and the impossible grandeur and grandiosity of the Ninth. What's so especially stunning about this new cycle, then, is that each and every Symphony is accorded the same attention to detail, both in terms of the performances themselves, as well as the stellar "peek beneath the covers" that is explored in each of the Symphonies
