Karajan - Mahler: Symphony No. 5 (Adagietto)

This is the original 1973 recording of Karajan&4th movement of Mahler&Symphony 5 in C sharp minor. He was undoubtedly one of the best conducters of his time. This recording is one of (if not) the best interpretations of Mahler&fifth symphony. He conducted alongside the Berliner Philharmoniker to produce a beautiful and memorable listen. The footage was filmed in Austria (circa 1940). The footage is of life on an Alpine farm and showcases the sublime mountainous landscapes of the Central Eastern Alps. It shows the yearly life of farmers during all four seasons. I find it fasinating that it was filmed just north of where Mahler conciveved his fifth symphony during the summer months inside his holiday cottage at Maiernigg.
