The recording of Beethovens Fourth presented here was recorded live in May 1982. Reviewing the concert, Joachim Kaiser remarked in the Suddeutsche Zeitung: The broad outline, the festive tone, the unerring tempo were always present... An unforgettable Fourth. Kleiber conducted Beethovens Pastoral Symphony only once in his career, performing it with the Bavarian State Orchestra on 7 November 1983, as recorded here. Unlike many famous conductors he sticks to the metronome markings in the full score. This only performance was almost lost to posterity. The master tape of the concert had deteriorated after two decades in storage; adequate restoration seemed a virtual impossibility. Fortunately, there was an audio cassette that had been in use for years in the cars tape player of Kleibers daughter. With a good deal of patience and musical sensitivity, it has been re-mastered. The resulting document is intended to provide an accurate and authentic reflection of the special musical atmosphere of this concert. Beethovens 7th Symphony, again with the Orchestra of the Bavarian State Opera under Kleiber from the early 1980s, was described by Hans Gohl in the Munchner Merkur as An evening of the greatest musical fulfillment.
