Saw this DVD adverstised in Muso magazine:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0006OR0IU/qid=1127264297/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_8_1/202-8133596-3019832

search for "piano" next to "dvd" on amazon and a Mozart piano concertos dvd comes up, dunno what its like.
"Mozart makes you believe in God - it cannot be by chance that such a phenomenon arrives into this world and then passes after 36 yrs, leaving behind such an unbounded no. of unparalled masterpieces"

well they are identical to CDs...the images on the DVD are scenic, and not of any performance.

so you pay to see random pictures of vienna while listening to rach.
