Classical Video material on YouTube and elsewhere

There is a wealth of video clips and whole programmes of classical interest on YouTube and similar. I hope to compile here a helpful and substantial catalogue, as a ready reference for teachers and students. Let me know of any gems you come across and I will add, organise and integrate them into a developing catalogue. Here is a beginning:

NB These videos were available when listed here, but there is no guarantee that they are still or will remain on line. YouTube requires that those who post videos have the copyright, and ARLT relies on that assurance, but cannot guarantee that the videos were in fact posted with copyright permission.
