The Beethoven Cycle of the 21st century. A new reference recording of the complete Beethoven symphonies with Christian Thielemann and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. The live recordings were made in concert in the Goldener Saal of the Vienna Musikverein between 2008 and 2010. The ideal artistic harmony between conductor and orchestra elicited frenzied applause from the audience, and enthusiastic reviews from the music critics. The audiovisual document is already available on 3 DVDs and BluRays (C-Major/Unitel). Now, perfectly in time for the Christmas season, Sony Classical is releasing the entire cycle together with a bonus DVD in a high-quality, deluxe limited CD edition.

His most recent book, The Triumph of Music in the Modern World (Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2008) examines why music has progressed from subordinate status in the early modern period to it's present position of supremacy among the creative arts. 6 CDs + 1 Bonus-DVD
