Needless to say, the audio and video quality of these clips is poor. Moreover, it is infuriating to have the program hostess reading comments about Beethoven’s 5th and about the orchestra and conductor over the beginning and end of the piece. However, to the best of my knowledge, this is the only video recording of Carlos conducting Beethoven’s 5th. It was because this video affords us the only chance to see how he conducted this work that I decided to include it on this site.
