HIGHLIGHTS OF VIENNA SYMPHONIC ORCHESTRA vol.1

In volume one a concert recorded from 1984 the conductor Heinz Wallberg has invited three outstanding soloists who, together with the renowned orchestra from Vienna, build a bridge across Mozart to Schubert and Chopin to Franz Lehar. The famous tenor Nicolai Gedda, who celebrates his 75th birthday this year, sings Lehars infectious operetta song Friends, life is worth living. Soprano Tamara Lund contributes an excerpt from the Zarewitsch (One Will Come). One of the highlights of the programme is the contribution of the pianist Hans Graf (also known as conductor), who offers with Chopins variation on Reach Me Your Hand, My Life from Mozarts Don Giovanni a rarely played piece of music. The orchestra presents some musical rarities as well: besides Schuberts superb overture from Rosamunde and Richard Strauss colourful series of waltzes from The Knight of Roses, it performs the last completed waltz of the immortal Johann Strauss Embrace each other, madding crowd a work in which the waltz king approaches his fan Johannes Brahms by means of a cunning orchestration technique. This piece and Carl Ziehrers powerful waltz Come and See evoke the atmoshpere of the New Years Concert in a programme which especially in its diversity is typical Viennese.

Jacques Offenbach, the inventor of the operetta, died in 1880 exactly the year in which the last maestro in the field of (so-called) light entertainment was born: Robert Stolz. 100 years later, the Vienna Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Heinz Wallberg, dedicates a unique memorial concert to these two composers, which you have in hand with volume 2 of the Springtime In Vienna DVD series. All of adopted Frenchman Offenbachs hits can be heard: the overtures from Orpheus in the underworld and Fair Helen and certainly the famous Barcarole from Hoffmanns Tales. Special emphasis is put on a big part dedicated to the works of Robert Stolz. He is regarded as the approved ambassador of the three-four timing in a time in which the century of the waltz is as far away as the emperors beard. He has written the last waltz and the first central European film hit. He owns the double nationality in the old and new world of popular musicThis is proved by his catchy marches, waltzes and songs. The renowned soloists Werner Hollweg (tenor) and Sona Ghazarian (Soprano) ensure vocal highlights.

Volume three of the Springtime In Vienna series offers a triumphant concert experience presenting exceptionally renowned soloists. Hungarian Soprano Sylvia Geszty who was as successful in opera as in operetta, appears here as soloist and duet partner of the young Adolf Dallapozza who was one of the most popular tenors in light entertainment during the seventies. Both Artists perform famous and popular repertoire among other things the duet Roses from Tyrol from Zellers The Birdseller or the duet Gesetzt den Fall from Millockers The Beggar Student. An orchestral contrast to the operetta parts of the programme is set by the performance of three Slavonic Dances by Antonin Dvorak. Regardless of serious or light music, these dances perfectly harmonize with pieces like the tremendous intermezzo from Johann Strauss Operetta 1001 Nacht. The encore of the concert recording is included also the polka Thunder and Lightning by Johann Strauss.

FRIEDRICH GULDA MOZART FOR THE PEOPLE

Friedrich Gulda was one of the most exciting and experimental pianists of the 20th century and the performance documented on this DVD reflects his great personality. He spent the majority of his professional life focusing primarily on the works of Mozart. Gulda expressed that only through this intensive, decades-long exploration could one truly come to understand and appropriately convey the real nature of Mozarts compositions. After extensive studies in classical piano, Gulda began a career as an eccentric concert pianist in the mid-40s. By the end of the 60s he had also become deeply involved in jazz, playing piano and later, flute and baritone saxophone. He performed throughout the world as a soloist and orchestra leader, playing classical music and jazz, often at the same concert. He wrote much of the music played by his orchestras, writing in both classical and jazz styles. In the 90s his maverick personality led him to work with dance music DJs. His death was feigned in 1999, simply so that he could have a resurrection party. His confirmed death was as a result of a heart attack in January 2000.

DVD C ATALOGUE
classical
Some consider Don Giovanni to be Mozarts masterpiece; its certainly amongst them and has remained popular since its first performance in 1787. It is an opera that uniquely blends the comic and the serious and a great part of its popularity is due to the enduring appeal of the myth of Don Giovanni, the libterine and the blashpemer, the famous womaniser. In music and literature there are many testimonies to the appeal of Don Juan - and it is always the Dons scandalous behaviour that particularly intrigues audiences. The version on this DVD was conceived by the Salzburg Marionette Theatre in collaboration with ZDF and 3sat in 1995. It is the fourth release in a series which will consist of five DVDs altogether and it is again Sir Peter Ustinov who shows his talent as gifted narrator and connoisseur of opera and accompanies the audience through the opera.

GEORGE BIZETS CARMEN

Love, jealousy and death Georges Bizets most popular work Carmen includes all accessories for a successful opera. Nevertheless, on the occasion of the Paris premiere in 1875 it was only granted a moderate success. On the one hand, the audience was disturbed by the cool realism and the tragic end, but on the other side it was fascinated by the immorality of the story which is based on Prosper Merimees novella of the same name. Due to the disappointing reactions, Bizet sank into deep depression and only three months after the first night was held, he died of a serious illness at the age of 36. Consequently, he did not have the chance to enjoy the triumphal march of the Female Elemental Force Carmen which began shortly afterwards. Today his last work is counted among the most popular works in the history of opera and melodies like the famous Habanera sung by Carmen or Escamillos Torero Song are well known opera classics. The DVD presents an open-air staging of the Opera Festival St. Margarethen recorded in 1998 in the colourful stage set of the Roman quarry which on this occasion was turned into a Spanish Arena.

GIUSEPPE VERDIS AIDA

After the successful release of Nabucco the Verdi commemoration year 2001 sees now another famous opera by the great Italian composer released on DVD. Aida was initially a commissioned work for the Egyptian viceroy Ismael Pascha that was meant for the festivities on the occasion of the Sues Canals inauguration. The first night was to be held at the newly built opera house of Cairo but due to time-related delays and, above all, the adversities of the Franco-Prussian War, it had to be postponed to December 24, 1871. Giuseppe Verdi himself did not attend this event but enjoyed only in February 1872 the triumph of the European premiere at La Scala where he took 32 curtains. The impressive scenery of the Roman quarry in St. Margarethen provides the perfect backdrop for the colourful open-air staging from 1997 that is documented on this DVD. Aida was the second monumental production of the Opera Festival St. Margarethen which since then has become one of Europes most important open-air festivals. Today, the festival is visited by almost 100,000 spectators per year.

GIUSEPPE VERDIS NABUCCO

On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Giuseppe Verdis death and the commemoration year that I slinked with it, this DVD presents Nabucco, his first great freedom opera. Already its premiere in 1842 was a triumphant success for the composer due to the fact that the opera was exactly the Italians kind of thing: they recognized themselves in the enslaved Hebrews who were oppressed by the Babylonians and celebrated Verdi as a symbol of national liberation. Especially the famous choir of aspiration Va Pensiro (that was even sung by the mourning people of Milan on Verdis funeral) has lost nothing of its popularity until today. The open-air staging of Nabucco that is documented here, is the most expensive and lavish production of the third-largest European Open-air Festival to date. It was a great popular success and received excellent reviews: The miracle of St. Margarethen (Taglich Alles, Wien), Nabucco goes beyond all previous standards. Unique (Munchner Abendzeitung).

TCHAIKOVSKYS SWAN LAKE

The four-act ballet Swan Lake, based on a German fairy tale and with music by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky, was first produced in Moscow in 1877 at the Bolshoi Theatre with a choreography by Julius Reisinger and was a total failure. After Tchaikovskys death in 1893, a memorial to the composer presented the second act, successfully re-choreographed by Lev Ivanov. In 1985 a completely new version of the ballet, choreographed by Ivanov and Marius Petipa was staged at the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg and this time the ballet received the appreciation that it had rightfully deserved. The new choreography fulfilled the expectations of the Russian public as it added an element of pressure to the composition. This DVD presents a classical staging of the ballet from 1968 which is based on the Ivanov/Petipa choreography. This Russian screen version of Swan Lake is a colourful and magnificent version of one of the ballet classics of all time, performed by the world-famous Kirov ensemble.

GIACOMO PUCCINIS TOSCA

Tosca is a tragic tale of love, intrigue and betrayal set in the Napoleonic Rome of 1800, a highly successful collaboration of composer Puccini and Illica and Giacosa. It was first produced in Rome in January 1900. The liberetto is an adaptation of Sardous famous tragedy, the main facts are said to have a historical basis. There were fierce political tensions in Italy at the time and rumours spread that a bomb might be thrown at the premiere. Queen Margherita of Italy was present in a glittering if understandably nervous audience which demanded encores of Vissi darte and E lucevan le stele and gave the performance a polite if not outstandingly warm reception. The opera was a success at the box office, but the critics generally turned thumbs down on it, finding its sadism and scenes of attempted rape and physical and mental torture repulsive. Nevertheless the general reaction was highly enthusiastic and has remained so until today. In the performance documented on this DVD, Bulgarian soprano Stefka Evstatieva is Tosca, the tempestuous opera singer whose stormy romance with artist Cavaradossi leads to violence, deceit and death. Joining Stefka Evstatieva as Tosca are Canadian baritone Cornelius Opthof as the evil Baron Scarpia and Russian tenor Vyacheslav Polozov as Cavaradossi.

MOZARTS THE MAGIC FLUTE

There is hardly another opera that is ambiguous as Mozarts The Magic Flute. A Magic tale or a mystery play, an allegory on good and evil or a parable of true love Mozarts last opera allows many ways of interpretation, a fact which even after more than 200 years contributes to the topics relevance. Regardless of the different interpretations one point is indisputable: The Magic Flute is a wonderful fairy tale which should be watched with the eyes of a child: Call back your childhood if you want to understand The Magic Flute, as the second husband of Mozarts widow, Georg Nikolaus Nissen, remarked aptly. The open-air staging of the Opera Festival St. Margarethen from 1999 follows this suggestion. Director Robert Herzi stages the opera as a fairy tale about love in its countless forms and varieties and offers the audience in the splendid scenery of the Roman quarry a unique and magic experience.

THE SECRET KGB SERIES: UFO ABDUCTION FILES

When researchers began looking into just how much the Soviet government knew about UFOs and extraterrestrial visitation, they were not surprised to learn that the Russians took the subject very seriously. What they didnt expect was evidence of ancient alien visitation, paranormal properties associated with related artifacts and most shocking of all, of a mass abduction in 1985. Among the piles of materials obtained from former Soviet spies, some extremely puzzling and disturbing documents and film footage surfaced confirming rumours, which had been circulating for decades. In the late 1950s and 60s the Russians became very interested in a number of unusual and newly discovered archaeological sites in Egypt. By interpreting ancient symbols, one of those sites was believed to contain the remains of a life form not from Earth. Startling top-secret film footage, never before seen outside the Kremlin confirms the Soviet mission to recover and analyse remains.

THE ELVIS PRESLEY STORY

Born to a poor Mississippi family in the heart of the Depression, Elvis had moved to Memphis by his teens, where he absorbed the vibrant melting pot of Southern popular music in the form of blues, country, bluegrass and gospel. After graduating from high school, he became a truck driver, rarely if ever singing in public. Some 1953 and 1954 demos, recorded at the emerging Sun Label in Memphis primarily for Elvis own pleasure, helped stir interest on the part of Sun owner Sam Phillips. Elvis Presley may be the single most important figure in American 20th century popular music. Not necessarily the best, and certainly not the most consistent. But no one could argue with the fact that he was the musician most responsible for popularising rock n roll on an international level. The story of Elvis Presley traces his early years with fascinating detail, film clips, rare early footage and a wealth of photographs are all here on this DVD.

THE DISCOVERY OF MARILYN MONROE

Marilyn Monroe embodied Hollywood glamour with an unparalleled glow and energy that infatuated the world. Although she was a captivating beauty with voluptuous curves and a generous pout, Marilyn was more than a 50s sex goddess. Her apparent vulnerability and innocence, in combination with a nave sensuality, has endeared her to global consciousness. Born Norma Jeane Mortenson on June 1, 1926 in LA, California, and with the identity of her father undetermined, she was later baptised Norma Jeane Baker after her mother, who had been a film cutter at RKO studios. Psychological problems prevented her mother from keeping the job and she was committed to a mental institution. On June 19, 1942 she wed her 21 year old neighbour Jimmy Dougherty, whom she had been dating for six months. After two years, Jimmy had left to join the Merchant Marines, and Norma Jeane began modelling for popular magazine covers. By 1946, Norma Jeane had divorced Jimmy and on August 26, 1946 signed her first studio contract with 20th Century Fox. Soon after, Norma dyed her hair blonde and changed her name to Marilyn Monroe (borrowing her grandmothers last name). The rest as the say, is history.

THE JAMES DEAN STORY

Born February 8, 1931 in Marion, Indiana, he was the only child of Winton and Mildred Dean. Winton moved his family to Santa Monica, CA when Dean was six years old. In July 1940 his mother died of cancer. Her death was a tremendous emotional burden on Dean. His father sent him back to Indiana to live with his sister and brother-in-law. As a high school student, he enjoyed riding his motorcycle with friends and playing guard on the high school basketball team. After graduating in 1949, he left for Los Angeles, entered Santa Monica City College. Soon Dean quit school, living precariously as a parking lot attendant and chasing auditions wherever they were available. In 1951 he left Hollywood for New York. There in 1953 he landed a spot in the Actors Studio run by Lee Strasberg. Intrigued with fast automobiles, Dean had bought a $6,900 Porsche Spyder. On September 30 he and his mechanic Rolf Wuetherich, were involved in a head-on collision at Paso Robles, CA. The Porsche was crumpled; Rolf suffered a smashed jaw and leg fracture. James Dean, dead at the age of 24, was buried in Fairmount, Indiana on October 8, 1955. Three thousand people attended his funeral. This film traces his life from the early years in Indiana up to his finest hour in the movie Rebel Without A Cause.

NASA ANTHOLOGY OF SPACE EXPLORATION
4 DVD BOx SET VOLUME 1: Starts in 1960 and is the story of the Mercury programme that paved the way for Gemini, Apollo, the Space Shuttles and Skylab missions that will perhaps one day spawn inter-planetary travel for all. In hot pursuit of the Russians who had already put a man into space, NASA launched Americas first man into space, Alan Shepard in Freedom 7 and John Glenn, Friendship 7. The race to the moon was on. VOLUME 2: The Eagle has landed and America wins the race to put the first man on the moon, watched over by one billion people around the world! However, space travel is not without its problems. The Gemini 8 mission is aborted and a hasty return to earth followed. The Skylab mission shows what the future may hold but not without its own setbacks. It was however the Apollo 13 mission that tempered the glorification of space travel. The real story, that surpasses the gripping tension of the Hollywood blockbuster version, of how human spirit and ingenuity saved the crew and the mission from ending in tragedy. VOLUME 3: As the 60s ended the Apollo mission programme completes its detailed exploration of the moon, magnificently captured on film. Back on earth it was the Soviet-American space agreement that led to the Worlds two super-powers collaborating to expedite the exploration of outer space. The beginning of this new exciting era saw the first Apollo-Soyuz mission in 1972. On the Shoulders of Giants is a fitting tribute to the Apollo mission programme. VOLUME 4: is the concluding programme in this series. It reveals the way forward for the future colonisation of outer space in the new millenium with the successful launch of the Space Shuttle programme. The first re-usable fixed-wind spacecraft to go into orbit and the first spacecraft to make its maiden voyage with astronauts onboard! This detailed study of the Space Shuttle programme covers not only its development and first launch but demonstrates the programmes potential in opening new space frontiers.

VIETNAM
1965 - 1969
Direct American involvement in support of the South began in 1955 with the arrival of the first advisors. The first combat troops arrived in 1965 and so began the Vietnam War, the longest and most unpopular war, to date that the Americans have ever fought. Vietnam, 1965 to 1969 is the remarkable record of the incumbent American Adminstrations presentation of events to support their cause. A presentation that bore so little resemblance to what most American servicemen endured during their tour of duty, it became inevitable that a nation began questioning the policies and actions of a government they had always trusted and films such as The Deerhunter would be perceived as the reality of the Vietnam war and its effects on the nation. Almost 60 000 Americans were killed in combat action but what the war did to Vietnam and to the Vietnamese people was even more drastic. By the time Saigon fell to the invading North Vietnamese forces on April 29, 1975, close to 2 million Vietnamese had died. Countless others perished or disappeared later in Cambodia during the carnage that perpetuated by the Khmer Rouge. PRODUCED FOR DVD BY KIM LYON & GARY PEET

EXCAVATING THE BIBLE

Over the past century what was once taken as hard fact regarding people, places and events in the Bible are now being disputed. Today the Bible is being challenged as an accurate reflection of history, the events written on her pages being seen more as a collection of legends, written long after the time traditionally attributed to Biblical events. Biblical archeologists have come to the Holy Land with the hope of finding clues to unravel preplexing questions about events in the Bible which conceals a potential storehouse of archeological finds, whose discovery could change the way we look at the Bible. Myth or reality, fact or fiction? Through the excavations at these sites in the Holy Land, archeologists hope to shed light on this disputed issue resolving conflicts between the Bible scholars and historical scientists.

NOSTRADAMUS
The visions Nostradamus committed to paper have eerily come to resemble major world events like TheFrench Revolution, JFKs assassination and the attacks of September 11, 2001. This DVD explores Nostradamus legacy through extensive interviews with leading Nostradamus expert and best-selling author John Hogue, who describes these chilling prophecies, and which ones have seemingly come true. Nostradamus writings share the screen with dramatic archival footage of the very events that have made the man so fascinating. The warnings he left us hold great relevance today, especially in light of current events such as the war on terror.

WESTMINISTER -
Behind The Closed Doors

What is it like to work in a palace, founded by William The Conqueror, rebuilt in Victorian Gothic splendour in which for 700 years successive Parliaments have met? Over a period of twelve months Tony Benn, regarded by many as a parliamentary tradition, toured the palace with his camera talking to people who work there and filming places that visitors and most MPs never see. Emily Wilding Davidsons broom cupboard, the hidden corridors, irreverent gargoyles, resident fire-fighters, canteen staff and engineers are among those who feature in this fascinating tour which goes beyond the ritual and public face we all know to the real work that goes on behind the closed doors of Westminister.

It was October 1991, the weather was already cold but the thought of the Maestro actually playing for the citizens of Poland warmed the hearts of jazz enthusiasts throughout the country.

Little did McCoy Tyner know in 1959 when he joined the Benny Golson Art Farmer Jazztet that more than 30 years later he would replace Farmer in Warsaw, Poland for a scheduled performance in the Opera House for the Warsaw Jazz Festival. But he did it and it was a rousing success. McCoy Tyners Warsaw appearance is a rare solo performance that allows you to see why the former side man to Ike & Tina Turner has been compared to that of a painter by jazz critic Garry Gibbins. McCoy paints with the opulence of Africa, the orient and the Middle East, which is why his lustiness is manifested in string dynamics and coloration rather than melodyTyner can inspire and invigorate.

REGGAE SHOWDOWN SERIES

DENNIS BROWN LIVE AT REGGAE CANFEST
One of Jamaicas most beloved and prolific artists, the late Dennis Brown has left behind a slew of classic songs, a rich musical legacy born of a career than spanned over 30 years. This DVD presents Browns last show on film before his untimely death n 1999 and shows The Crown Prince of Reggae at his best, performing one hour of his legendary hits, such as: Love and Hate, Stop Yu Fighting and many more. Until today, Dennis Brown, whom Bob Marley ecstatically called the best reggae singer in the world, remains the only artist in Jamaica to have over eighty number one hit songs. This concert recorded at Reggae Canfest also features performances by Browns long-term collaborators Lloyd Parks and We The People Band, Lady Shaw, Admiral Tibbet, Frankie Paul and Conrad Crystal. Lady Shaw counts as the first female Dancehall cat to win a Grammy. She is regarded by many as the reigning queen of the Dancehall in Jamaica and enjoys arguably the most sustained career as a female artist in the industry. Lloyd Parks and We Are The People Band are world renowned as one of the most versatile and accomplished reggae bands and are celebrating 28 years in the music industry.

SIZZLA & TURBULANCE
Perhaps the most captivating and enigmatic performer to emerge from Jamaica in the last twenty years is Sizzla. But although he is a prolific recording artist, he remains a mysterious figure, having little or no contact with the media. Not wanting to be seen to endorse the industry, he is wary of any involvement with press and promotion and has granted only a few interviews to date. His rare live appearances are always sold out. With this DVD you get the chance to see one of his most memorable performances to date. Combined with an electrifying performance by featured artist Turbulance, the High-Priest keeps the fires burning with all his crowd-pleasing hits. He has an ability to fuse passionate lyrical styling with deceptively simple rhythms that take in a range of genres from staccato dancehall and gentle roots reggae to surprisingly commercial R&B and soul arrangements. Sizzla is all about truth through music. A principle figure in the 90s roots and culture revolution, he has inspired dispossessed Jamaicans and newcomers to reggae music alike. One dreadlock Rasta is ensuring that the roots and culture legacy lives on.
HH0139

SHABBA AT SHOWDOWN
During his heyday, Shabba Ranks was arguably the most popular dancehall toaster in the world. He was a massive crossover success in the U.S., thanks to an openly commercial hybrid of reggae and hip-hop, and also to prominent duet partners like Maxi Priest, Johnny Gill and KRS-One. All of this brought him several hit singles and albums on the R&B charts in the early 90s, and made him the first dancehall artist to win a Grammy. Ranks distinctive, booming growl of a voice earned him many imitators, and his sex-obsessed lyrics while drawing criticism for their unrelenting slackness made him one of dancehalls hottest sex symbols. This DVD shows him at the height of his career: in a concert recording from 1990 he performs hit after hit in his typical energetic and colourful style, accompanied by the silky voice of duet partner Krystal. Before his staggering performance, the crowd is heated up by a host of top artists such as Junior Demus, Papa Sam, Ninja Man, Professor Nuts, Admiral Tibet and many more

JAZZ LEGENDS
CHARLIE BYRD TRIO
Charlie Byrd (1925 1999) is best remembered for the work he did with Stan Getz and for his work with Herb Eillis and Barney Kessei, as The Great Guitars. The significance of those two associations sometimes obscures the remarkably innovative work he did in the late 1950s and 1960s with his trio. Although Laurindo Almeida preceded him in the use of the concert guitar in a jazz setting, Byrds style and technique seemed a perfect fit for jazz. He brought to the concert guitar both a high degree of sophistication due to his classical training and a kind of down home quality that came through when he played blues and straight ahead jazz. It was said he could play a Bach Cantata with the same ease as a Gershwin song, but he delivered each in its own unique way.

THE PETER GREEN STORY

The guitar used to speak for me, but I cant let it do that for me anymore, I cant let it break my heart again. Peter was quoted in Mojo ten years ago but the quote stands firm today in summing up this incredible man and his story. After replacing the legendary Eric Clapton in John Mayalls blues breakers, Peter went on to form Peter Greens Fleetwood Mac, one of the most successful bands to come out of Britain in the 60s. Peters genius on the guitar was matched by the songs he wrote including Black Magic Woman, later a huge debut hit for Santana, and the supernatural and sublime instrumental Albatross, as well as the classic Oh Well. The film will trace that early success, explore Peters fragile mental and artistic recovery, his return to the recording studio and live music scene in the mid 1990s that saw his most positive creative output for many years, and will portray an artist who has now come to express his feelings, not just through the guitar music he still loves but also his art and photography. The film contains extensive and rare archive footage of live and studio performances, stills, and original in depth interviews with Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Mike Vernon (legendary producer of the original Fleetwood Mac Blue Horizons Albums), Martin Celmins (Peters official biographer), Carlos Santana, Jeremy Spencer (the original Fleetwood Mac guitarist), Noel Gallagher and many others who have been fortunate to work with or know the man. Running Time: Approx 120 mins + 30 mins of extras
