Sinopsis
Recordings of all the Beethoven symphonies with their chief conductor are always a milestone in the artistic work of the Berliner Philharmoniker. So it was with Herbert von Karajan and Claudio Abbado, and expectations are correspondingly high for this cycle conducted by Sir Simon Rattle. Where does the special status of these symphonies come from? Simon Rattle has an explanation: “One of the things Beethoven does is to give you a mirror into yourself – where you are now as a musician.” In fact, this music contains such a wealth of extreme emotions and brilliant compositional ideas that reveal the qualities of the orchestra and its conductor as if under a magnifying glass.
Una colección de interpretaciones animadas de grandes obras de música clásica. En 'El Aprendiz de Brujo' (P. Dukas), Mickey Mouse, discípulo de un mago, se mete en un gran embrollo, pues sus conocimientos de magia son muy limitados. 'La Consagración de la Primavera' (Stravinsky) cuenta la historia de la evolución, desde los seres unicelulares hasta la extinción de los dinosaurios. 'La Danza de las Horas' (Ponchielli) es un fragmento de un ballet cómico interpretado por elefantes, hipopótamos, cocodrilos y avestruces. 'Una Noche en el Monte Pelado' de Mussorgsky y el 'Ave Maria' de Schubert describen el enfrentamiento entre la oscuridad y la luz.
La cara oculta explora los límites del amor, los celos y la traición.

Afligido, Adrián encuentra consuelo tanto en su música como en los brazos de una hermosa camarera, Fabiana (Martina García), y a medida que la pasión entre ellos crece, las preguntas sobre la misteriosa desaparición de Belén comienzan a aflorar y el pasado de Adrián estará más presente de lo que nunca pudieron imaginar.

The charismatic and inspiring Claudio Abbado and the mesmerising young pianist Yuja Wang, with the Lucerne Festival Orchestra, hold the audience spellbound in this opening concert of the 2009 Lucerne Festival.
