Warner Music Euroarts - Berliner Philharmoniker - EUROPAKONZERT 2007 from Berlin, DVD Classic

Lisa Batiashvili (violin), Truls Mørk (cello) Berliner PhilharmonikerSir Simon RattleLive from the Kabelwerk Oberspree, a former Power and Cable Factory in Berlin, Simon Rattle conducts this 2007 Europa-Konzert on the occasion of the 125th anniversary of the Berliner Philharmoniker. As this impressive 19th-century industrial building is infused with Brahms and Wagner, there is a feeling of total commitment that is only enhanced further by the unusual surroundings. The partnership of Lisa Batiashvili and Truls Mørk ensures a moving performance of Brahms’s last orchestral work, his Double Concerto. It is not let down by what follows: Rattle and the orchestra continue to demonstrate their outstanding musicianship here, delivering an amazingly fresh and dynamic Fourth Symphony.
