"Norbert Busé's exposé of Romanian firebrand Sergiu Celibidache explores a personality that embraced a man of sparkling good humour and bonhomie alongside periods of barely diguised despair ... Bonus material features a charismatic 1950 performance of Beethoven's Egmont Overture with the Berlin Philharmonic, and interviews with Barenboim, Michael Ballhaus and Irina-Paraschiva Celibidachi".
