  <ReviewExcerpt language="de">"Abgeklärt und ganz in sich selbst ruhend gelingt ihm mit Böhm eine kongeniale Umsetzung der Partitur. Karl Böhms Dirigiertugenden wie Genauigkeit, Disziplin und kapellmeisterliche Strenge finden im klaren Klavierstil des hier bereits 66-jährigen Wilhelm Backhaus ein gleichgewichtiges Gegenüber." (Wochen-Kurier)</ReviewExcerpt>
  <ShortCommtent>These interpretations of the Fourth Piano Concerto and the Fourth Symphony are amongst the first Beethoven recordings made by Karl Böhm after the Second World War. They are convincing due to Böhm’s characteristic precision and clarity of form. Serene, tranquil and quietly confident Wilhelm Backhaus produces a congenial realisation of the score together with Böhm.</ShortCommtent>
