Plot
In this program filmed not long before the maestro's death, Herbert von Karajan -- renowned Austrian conductor and longtime music director of the Berlin Philharmonic -- leads his orchestra in works by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Richard Strauss. In classic style, Karajan coaxes magnificent performances from his musicians as they play Mozart's Divertimento no. 17 in D Major and Strauss's "Also Sprach Zarathustra," op. 30.
