This release consists of a dramatised feature (Film) recreating the rehearsals surrounding the private first performance of the Eroica at the palace of Beethoven's patron Prince Lobkowitz in December 1804, together with a complete performance of the symphony (Performance).\n\nThe drama features a distinguished cast: Ian Hart (Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone), Frank Finlay (The Pianist), Jack Davenport (Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl), Tim Pigott-Smith (The Remains of the Day) and Claire Skinner (Naked).\n\nThe complete performance, fascinating for its period costumes and its close-ups of period instruments, was conceived as a sequel to the film itself: the conductor shown on screen is Ian Hart in character as Beethoven (though he does very little actual conducting), and Gardiner himself does not appear on camera.\n\n[Cast]\nBeethoven: Ian Hart\nCount Dietrichstein: Tim Pigott-Smith\nPrince Lobkowitz: Jack Davenport\nMarie: Fenella Woolgar\nJosephine: Claire Skinner\nTherese: Lucy Akhurst\nHaydn: Frank Finlay\nwith Leo Bill, Peter Hanson, Robert Glenister, Anton Lesser, Trevor Cooper, Victoria Shalet, Celina Liesegang, Jacob Engelberg, Jonathan Aris, Ian Thompson, Joseph Morgan, Geoffrey Towers, Sarah Ford and others\nScreenplay: Nick Dear\nDirector: Simon Cellan Jones\n\nMusic: Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique, conducted by Sir John Eliot Gardiner\n\nBonus feature\nBeethoven: Symphony No. 3 \"Eroica\" - complete performance\n\nRecorded: 2003, Eroica Hall, Vienna\n\nSubtitles: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian\nNTSC\nAspect ratio: 16:9 anamorphic\nSound: LPCM stereo, DTS surround \/ 129 minutes (film 83 minutes, bonus feature 46 minutes)\nSingle-sided dual-layer disc (DVD9)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Opus Arte","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53530760806689,"sku":"4945604909082","price":5690.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4945604909082.jpg?v=1789819064","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4945604909082","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
