The currently competing version is missing Lily Pons's "Vocalise" (Rachmaninoff) and more than half of Bruno Walter's Meistersinger prelude. Moreover, although that version announces Rise Stevens in "Mon coeur s'ouvre a ta voix" (Samson et Dalila), it omits the selection and jumps to the next one. The Bel Canto Society version includes these selections complete and all others.The Bel Canto Society version has PCM audio, with the transfer from analog to digital using the Lavry Gold converter. The competing version has Dolby Digital audio, at 192kHz, which omits 87 percent of the sound. Review "Carnegie Hall contains indelible scenes of some of music's top personalities of the 1940s at work performing." -- John Ardoin, reviewing in The Dallas Morning News:"Buy the DVD and enjoy some sterling music-making from some of the finest artists of the 20th century." --Lawrence A. Johnson, reviewing in Gramophone: ## Images ![Carnegie Hall - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81a2dcMM4zS.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars I am so pleased with the DVD! It is like new, and it came in a timely fashion. *by P***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2024* Great video!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars A musical feast. *by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2014* I first saw this film over 60 years ago and in many respects it was my introduction to classical music. The DVD was a perfect reminder of that experience. I sent a copy of it to my sister-in-law, who is an admirer of Artur Rubinstein, and she also liked it immensely although the film was recorded in black-and-white.What I didn't like - and this is purely personal and probably no reflection on the film - is that when Jascha Heifetz was playing a most beautiful part of the Tchaikovsky violin concerto the camera produced a soppy scene of a lady, all misty-eyed, when I would have very much preferred to see Heifetz in action.What there is to like about the film is the sights and sounds of not one, but many, first-rate musicians in action, and that makes up for everything. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Only because of the music *by D***Y on Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2011* The only reason I have not given this movie 5 points is the plot. However, the plot is a very minor component in this movie... This 1947 feature, shot inside Carnegie Hall is about a mother whose only dream is that her only son will become a famous concert pianist. As he grows up, he's fortunate enough to see the greatest names performing right across his home, at Carnegie Hall. The first 40 minutes focus on the plot and there's hardly any music in them. But then the direction changes - the plot moves to the backround while the focus is on Jascha Heifetz (1st movement from Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto), Artur Rubinstein (Chopin and De Falla), Jan Peerce, Rise Stevens and more. It's a unique chance to see these great names performing live! The picture and sound are, I guess, what can be expected from a movie made in the 40s not by a big Hollywood studio; nevertheless, if the artists and music in general are the focus, it's a treasure. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/4080497-carnegie-hall](https://www.desertcart.be/products/4080497-carnegie-hall) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
