Claudio Abbado (1933-2014) was one of the outstanding personalities in the history of the Berliner Philharmoniker. He made his debut with the orchestra in 1966, and was its chief conductor from 1989 to 2002. In May 2013, this unique partnership ended with Claudio Abbado’s last concert with the Philharmoniker. The program included two of the most important works of musical Romanticism: Hector Berlioz’s visionary Symphonie fantastique and Felix Mendelssohn’s magical, shimmering music for A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Audio and video recordings of this unforgettable evening are now being released in a hardcover luxury edition.
