Rubinstein: Rubinstein In Concert (London Symphony Orchestra Andre Previn)
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.

Mozart's last work The Requiem Mass in D Minor K626 receives a strong performance from the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra And Chorus under Mozart specialist Colin Davis in a classic recording made in 1984.Popular legend has it that the Requiem was commissioned by a mysterious stranger fuelling Mozart's obsession that the piece was his own Mass. However the probable truth is much less dark that one Count Walsegg who had a well-known penchant for commissioning works which he then attempted to pass of as his own commissioned it upon the death of his wife. Mozart died is 1791 before completing the piece. It was later completed by one of his students Franz Sussmayer at the request of Mozart's wife Constanze.
