CELIBIDACHE - New Year's Concert - Danish Radio Orchestra - Copenhagen 12/12/1970

Here is an exceptional document, featuring a 58-year-old Celibidache, in dazzling physical shape and with unparalleled musical energy. As always, Celi manages to amaze us. Listening to these songs, familiar to everyone on planet Earth, in this reading of the highest human level, is like "experiencing" them for the first time. Celibidache was never invited to Vienna; his anti-star system and anti-record stances always precluded him from prestigious and official opportunities for visibility. However, this did not prevent him from tenaciously pursuing his path of freedom and the search for truth, values ​​that will endure for present and future generations of sincere apprentice musicians, driven by the passion that drives them to tirelessly pursue the path of awareness.
