This DVD presents a concert and documentary, featuring the Lucerne Festival Orchestra, conveying a moving view from their 1938 inaugural gala under Toscanini to Abbado and the newly founded orchestra. Included are rarely seen rehearsal, concert, and archival footage, featuring Toscanini, Furtwaengler, Karajan, Kubelik, Abbado, and more. A two-part program, ABBADO IN LUCERNE is split into a documentary on the Lucerne Festival Orchestra, and a rousing concert performance from the rightly lauded performers. The Orchestra was formed in 1938, and has interpreted many classic pieces over the years, such as Debussy's "La Mer," which makes up the bulk of the concert recording here.

| | Ton Koopman - The Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra & Choir: Johann Sebastian Bach - Markus Passion DVD (2005)
Abbado In Lucerne DVD
$14.15
Award-winning Dutch organist and conductor Ton Koopman has become renowned for his recordings of baroque classical music, in particular the works of Johann Sebastian Bach. In this release, the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra & Choir (founded and conducted by Koopman) performs Bach's magnificent Markus Passion in the splendid Church of San Simpliciano in Milan, Italy.
In 1731, Johann Sebastian Bach composed the "St. Marks Passion." Sadly, the original music was lost, meaning only a scant few people got to hear the masterful work that Bach conjured up. Some solace could be taken from the text of the piece, which remained intact, and on this release composer Ton Koopman takes some bold strides by completing Bach's piece so contemporary audiences can hear what the legendary figure may have envisioned for his "St. Marks Passion." The painstaking process was agonized over by Koopman, but the results are highly rewarding, with the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra and Choir providing a reverent performance ...

Howard Hawks directs this classic about a jaded American fisherman (Bogart) who risks his life to help a group of French freedom fighters and a sultry young woman (Bacall) with whom he falls in love. The fascinating setting (Vichy-controlled Martinique during the Second World War), the source material (Ernest Hemingway's 1937 novel), and a screenplay co-written ...
