| Description: | The end of an era and a musical highlight: Simon Rattleâ??s farewell as chief conductor of the Berliner Philharmoniker with Gustav Mahlerâ??s stunning Sixth Symphony was given a standing ovation by the audience. In a high-quality edition you can relive this special moment on CD and Blu-ray. There is also an audio recording of Sir Simonâ??s
Philharmoniker debut conducting the same work, a documentary about his tenure, and an extensive companion book with many articles and photos.
On 14 November 1987, the young Simon Rattle first took to the conductorâ??s podium of the Berliner Philharmoniker. â??I had the feeling that I would find my voice that day,â? says Rattle in retrospect. At the same time, the young conductor demonstrated his total mastery of this vast work with its brutal eruptions. The fact that Mahlerâ??s work was also part of this farewell concert had a symbolic as well as a musical dimension: it brought both a circle to a close and also a great chapter in the history of the Berliner
Philharmoniker to an end. At the same time, the performance reminded us that performances of Mahlerâ??s music marked highlights of the Rattle era on numerous
occasions. The tumultuous applause expressed not only enthusiasm for a uniquely intense, multi-faceted performance but also gratitude for 16 fulfilling years.

Introduction by Sir Simon Rattle (10 min) - BUDAPEST F.O./FISCHERFollowing up on his highly acclaimed recordings of Mahler's first, second fourth and sixth symphonies for Channel Classics, Ivan Fischer and his Budapest Festival Orchestra offer a new vision of the Symphony No.5. It's famous Adagietto is one of the most intimate pieces that Mahler ever wrote for orchestra. According to Fischer, the fifth is "the most Jewish of all Mahler's symphonies. The first movement takes US to the unmistakable mood of Jewish lamentation, the finale to the childlike vision of messianic joy.""Sinfonie 5" in the SACD+CD format by Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra, released by Channel Classics, presents a stunning interpretation of one of classical music's most iconic symphonies.
