Berliner Philharmoniker Beethoven - 9 Symphonies - Limited Edition Deluxe Dolby Atmos Blu-Ray

Famously passionate about the developments in audio media, Karajan embraced every opportunity to present his recordings at the highest possible fidelity and no doubt would have insisted that his catalogue be remastered to exploit the most cutting-edge technologies. 

In this spirit, Deutsche Grammophon, who have always been one of the great pioneers of sound recording, present the very first DOLBY ATMOS recording on the label, and perhaps the first ever classical ATMOS – Karajan's Grammy award-winning Beethoven Cycle of the 1970s. 

The Dolby Atmos expands on 5.1 Surround Sound and produces the most extraordinary realism ever heard outside of a 'live' performance.  This new 'chapter' in the label's history significantly comes as we celebrate its 120-year legacy

"Karajan made three recordings of the mighty Ninth Symphony for DG of which this 1977 take is the finest. Tonal beauty and sophistication go hand in hand with bracing physicality to make this one of the most compelling Ninths ever recorded . . . Awesome tuttis underpinned by visceral timpani alternate with melt-in-the-mouth string textures throughout, making this an unforgettable experience" - Classic FM, 2007
