Nikolaus Harnoncourt Conducts Haydn and Beethoven

Nikolaus Harnoncourt conducts Concentus Musicus Wien in Haydn's Mass No 10 in C (Paukenmesse) and Beethoven's Symphony No 6 in C minor, Op 67.

Nikolaus Harnoncourt conducts Concentus Musicus in two Viennese masterpieces.
The Austrian conductor is heard here in two of his last concerts where his typically inspirational performances with his own period instrument orchestra are a reminder of why he is seen as one of the most influential musicians of the past half century.
