About the Symphony:
Symphony: Mathis der Maler (Matthias the Painter) is perhaps the most famous orchestral work of German composer Paul Hindemith. The symphony is based on themes from Hindemith's opera Mathis der Maler, about the painter (in German, "Maler"), Matthias Grünewald (or Neithardt). Hindemith's symphony was written in 1934 before he completed the full opera of Mathis. He was asked by conductor Wilhelm Furtwängler for a new work to perform on an upcoming Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra concert tour and decided to write a symphony using principal themes from the opera as a 'trial run'.
Structure:
The symphony has three movements:
1. Engelskonzert (Angelic Concert)
2. Grablegung (Entombment)
3. Versuchung des heiligen Antonius (The Temptation of Saint Anthony)

Personal Remark:
Hard to find TV-Rip of that symphony from a 90's performance. Suboptimal image quality but great sound thanks to an ac3-track. Do NOT mix up this symphony with the homonymous opera of Hindemith, see here and here for details. BTW, I will release some more Classic and Jazz-Video-Rarities in the upcoming months.
