Reviews
Critics have generally praised Waldbühne 2017 | Legends of the Rhine for its stunning audiovisual presentation and the spirited performance under Gustavo Dudamel's energetic leadership. On IMDb, the film holds a solid rating around 7.5/10, reflecting a positive reception from classical music enthusiasts and concert film audiences alike. Reviewers from classical music journals and websites like Gramophone and Classical Music Magazine have applauded the film for its masterful interpretation of the program and the vibrant energy Dudamel brings to the stage. One review from Gramophone highlighted that 'Dudamel’s passionate conducting perfectly captures the grandeur and mystique of the Rhine legends, making the experience both intimate and epic.' However, some critics noted that the concert film format might not appeal to all moviegoers, as it focuses heavily on the musical performance rather than a traditional narrative, which could feel less engaging for viewers unfamiliar with classical music concerts. Rotten Tomatoes does not have aggregated scores for this title, given its niche genre and limited release, but audience feedback generally underscores the film's visual beauty and stirring musical journey. Overall, the film is recommended for fans of orchestral music and those interested in cultural storytelling through performance art.
