The conductor Sergiu Celibidache was a legend in his own lifetime, mesmerising orchestras with his intensity and brilliance, both in rehearsals and in performances - which were always conducted from memory. These recordings pair the first of Mozart's last three symphonies, described as 'among musical history's most miraculous feats of concentrated inspiration', with Schubert's Second Symphony. The Celibidache Symphonic Series celebrates the historic release on DVD of rare footage of the few performances ever recorded for television. Includes a bonus recording of the Overture to Cherubini's Il portatore d'acqua.
