    Here are Maurizio Pollini's compelling interpretations - paired with two now legendary conductors - of five piano masterworks performed with the Vienna Philharmonic at home the Musikverein's magnificent golden hall. In Mozart and Beethoven the camera captures the pianist's virtuosity as well as his empathy with Karl Bohm as they document the only two Mozart concertos that Pollini has ever released. For the Brahms concerto Pollini is joined by a young Claudio Abbado creating great music-making in which this essential repertoire is joyfully illuminated by two kindred spirits.

    Just one year after his successful and highly acclaimed comeback at the Vienna State Opera he returned to the same opera stage where he made his brilliant debut in 197 as a thirty-year-old: the Gro''Ÿes Festspielhaus in Salzburg. This recital was staged a second time and was also relayed live to a giant screen at the city's Domplatz - a clear indication of the enormous affection with which he was received by the Salzburg public. The Spanish tenor repays such lively interest with an exclusive programme that includes no less than 23 songs and five encores. Whereas the first half of the evening was divided into three parts - works from the Italian baroque French m''lodies by Jules Massenet and canzoni by Francesco Paolo Tosti the second half consisted entirely of Spanish works and focused principally on the songs of Manuel de Falla. And if not the final encore of the evening certainly its crowning moment is the song we have come to associate with Jos'' Carreras as his vocal trademark - Granada by Agust''n Lara.
