Philharmoniker (1944 - German)
"Die Philharmoniker" was a Nazi propaganda film which twisted the truth about the history of the orchestra to make the audience think that it was the National Socialists that saved the ensemble during the 1930's.

Information about the film can be seen via Wikopedia.

Below, there is an extensive essay on the film and a video download of Eugen Jochum conducting part of the first movement of the Symphony No. 7 (Gutmann Edition) as used in the film.
