We treasure this beautiful essay on the life and work of Christoph von Dohnányi by Alex Ross for The New Yorker:
https://www.newyorker.com/culture/postscript/the-towering-musical-integrity-of-christoph-von-Christoph von Dohnányi
"Dohnányi, after no end of rigorous rehearsal, obtained a collective sound of unreal, flabbergasting clarity. There was no loss of expressivity in the process; the images became all the more overwhelming when they were seen through spotless glass. That concert seemed emblematic of Dohnányi’s career—the mastering of chaos in the service of humanity."

The late German conductor, who came from a heroic anti-Nazi family, made one believe in the inherent virtue of the core repertory.
