Title: Fascinating rehearsal (and response to previous review)
Review: I just want to respond to Mr. Morrison's (otherwise typically superb and perceptive) review -- he may have had a tv/dvd connection issue when he was watching the rehearsal sequence, because the rehearsal *is* in color and in very fine sound (better, in fact, than the concert performance which follows). This is obviously a DVD for real conductor enthusiasts - Bohm's rehearsal technique, as Mr. Morrison states, is detailed, demanding, and rather cranky, but he gets the desired results and his knowledge of the score is amazingly precise and impressive. For fans of conductor rehearsals, this is an essential purchase, I think.
Is the review positive or negative?
