Editorial Reviews:

Two of Germany’s most scenic and historic regions unfold from a bird’s eye view

Experience the fairy tale beauty, natural wonders, and rich history of southern Germany. Shot in high definition from a helicopter-mounted camera, each tour is accompanied by a poetic narrative and evocative soundtrack of regional music, including works by native sons Ludwig van Beethoven, Richard Wagner, and Johann Strauss.

Visions of Germany: Bavaria—Take a journey filled with royal intrigue, Alpine majesty, and charming villages where the past merges with the present. See the Mediterranean flair of the Bodensee, the "German Riviera"; the old walled city of Rothenburg; King Ludwig’s fanciful castles; snow-covered mountain resort towns; and more.

Visions of Germany: Along the Rhine—One of the world’s great rivers, the Rhine provides the perfect route to explore southwestern Germany, from Lake Constance to Cologne, with side trips to the Black Forest of legend and lore, the rich wine region, historic Bonn, the romantic string of castles like beads on a necklace at Koblenz, Heidelberg, and more.

Includes bonus footage not seen on public television.

Summary: Very nice but a few suggestions...
Comment: I just wish there had been credits for the music selections at the end. And I think they should have used the music of Wagner right away at the beginning of the scene showing Bayreuth. For some reson they used Smetana but at least Wagner kicked in a few minutes later. A few of the folk music tunes were a bit obtrusive and didn't really flow together with the classical pieces, but that's just my personal taste.

Summary: Flying With The Valkyrie ~ A German Adventure
Comment: Much like most of you out there I first became acquainted with the `Vision Series' of aerial travelogue features on PBS television. Whenever I came upon one while channel surfing I'd immediately put the remote down and sit back and relax. It wasn't long before I decided these programs were something I'd never tire of watching and needed to be added to my private DVD collection.

Containing two program on two DVD discs, `Visions of Germany' is the fifth high altitude tour in the series following `Visions of ... Greece / Italy / England and France'. As with the previous four this '07 release whisks the audience away far above the maddening crowd to view Germany in all its incredible architectural and agricultural glory. Add to the visuals an robust German soundtrack and informative narration and your ready for departure!

Summary: Visions of Germany
Comment: This two part video of Bavaria and the Rhine was beautifully shot and provided a very touching narrative. The technique of photographing the sites from the air lends a quality that could not be obtained from the ground. It very adequately shows off the beauty of the southern and western portions of Germany. Having been to many of the places described in the videos, it had a special meaning to us. However, for someone who has not visited Bavaria, I believe the video would be an enticement to plan a trip.
