Peter Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 "Pathétique"; Herbert von Karajan conducts the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, recorded at the Berlin Philharmonie in 1973. Herbert von Karajan (1908-1989) projected the hieratic image of the conductor as officiant of some quasi-mystic rite. And anyone who ever saw him conduct live or on his many audiovisual recordings will agree that in his performances, music did indeed become a religion and Karajan its high-priest. Karajan embodied classical music in the general consciousness as an epoch-making conductor, media star, opera producer, festival director and festival founder.
