by Ludwig van Beethoven / Berliner Philharmoniker / Herbert von Karajan

Symphonie Nr. 7 cover art

Recorded at the Jesus-Christus-Kirche in Berlin, this forms part of Herbert von Karajan's historic 1962-1963 complete Beethoven cycle for Deutsche Grammophon. The Berliner Philharmoniker's muscular, highly polished string section and Karajan's swift tempos perfectly capture the relentless rhythmic drive that Wagner famously dubbed the 'apotheosis of the dance.'
