Beethoven hat Christian Thielemann auf seinem musikalischen Lebensweg begleitet wie kaum ein anderer Komponist. Es ist das von Grund auf Menschliche an Beethovens Musik, das für Thielemann den Kern ihrer Faszination ausmacht. Der Meisterdirigent, der wie wenige vor ihm in die Werkstatt Beethovens geschaut und die Spuren seines Genies gesucht hat, erklärt, warum wir Beethoven noch immer brauchen und welche enormen Schwierigkeiten sich bei ihm für jeden Dirigenten stellen. Er geht der unübertroffenen Größe seiner Symphonien nach und natürlich der Frage, wie man Beethovens Musik heute spielen kann.

Carved by Gianlorenzo Bernini in 1636 - 37 for his own pleasure, the portrait of Costanza is one of his most captivating works, but until now little has been known about its subject. For centuries Costanza was identified only as Bernini's mistress, who later incited his rage by betraying him for his brother.
