    Story Synopsis:
    From the Grobe Festspielhaus, "Valery Gergiev Conducts The Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra" in an unforgettable performance of some of the classic works of Prokofiev, Schnittke and Stravinsky. One of music

    DVD Picture:
    The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD picture exhibits nicely detailed images of this stage performance. Colors are nicely rendered within the orchestra, though sometimes hues appear a bit hot. Contrast and shadow delineation are quite pleasing. Gergiev

    Soundtrack:

    Reason #29 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I originally subscribed to your magazine because I am a home theatre junkie, and it gave me one more way to feed my addiction. However, I find the one thing that I really enjoy is full access to your subscriber Web Site. I'm on it every day looking up a DVD review or reading an up-to-the minute article on what's going on in the world of home theatre. It's first on my favorites list.
