Herbert von Karajan - The Early Lucerne Years https://audite.de/en/product/3CD/21464-herbert_von_karajan_the_early_lucerne_years.html LUCERNE FESTIVAL Historic Performances, Vol. 19 4022143214645 21464 BCT 2023.09.08 "Künstlerisch sensationelle, gleichsam unter Starkstrom stehende, energetisch vibrierende Aufnahmen, die bisher im Archiv von Swiss Radio und Television SRF schlummerten und uns zeigen, was einst den Dirigenten Karajan und sein nachschöpferisches Gespür ausmachten. [...] Klarheit im Aufbau und eine in unerhörte Extreme getriebene Ausdrucksintensität sorgen für einzigartige Musikerlebnisse." (Online Merker) "Immediacy, energy and passion [...] For those wanting to delve more deeply into the maestro’s postwar rise to the top, this is essential listening." (Europadisc) For four decades, from 1948 to 1988, Herbert von Karajan was one of Lucerne Festival’s defining artists. Now available for the first time are his early Lucerne live recordings from the 1950s, when Karajan was rebuilding his career: works from Bach to Honegger in thrilling, rhythmically tight interpretations, conscious of form. He is joined by famous soloists such as Clara Haskil and Géza Anda, Robert Casadesus and Nathan Milstein. I.
