Benjamin Zander on Beethoven's Ninth Symphony

Benjamin Zander's latest recording is of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, with the Philharmonia Orchestra and Chorus on Brattle Media, and it's one in which the conductor has sought to perform the work exactly as he believes the composer original intended. Zander talks to Editor Martin Cullingford about the recording, and also about the importance of reaching new audiences for classical music.
