This collection nevertheless represents a remarkable lifelong achievement, documenting the composer’s music from his earliest student compositions to the final masterpieces. In the years after his death in 1943, Rachmaninov’s reputation foundered, with the leading reference publication Grove’s Dictionary prophesying obscurity in a notoriously damning and unscholarly assessment. In more recent decades, however, the composer’s music has gained many champions, and his unique contribution is celebrated. Today, Rachmaninov is justly regarded as a figure of substantial historical significance.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Rachmaninoff","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46170472481084,"sku":"4786765","price":65.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0410\/8860\/files\/large-Rach_20cover.jpg?v=1714687598"},{"product_id":"gotterdammerung-vinyl-6lp","title":"Götterdämmerung: Vinyl 6LP","description":"\u003cp\u003eCast List: \u003cbr\u003eBrünnhilde – Birgit Nilsson | Siegfried – Wolfgang Windgassen | Alberich – Gustav Neidlinger | Hagen – Gottlob Firck | Gutrune – Claire Watson | Gunther – Dietrich Discher-Dieskau | Waltraute – Christa Ludwig | Woglinde – Lucia Popp | Wellgunde – Gwyneth Jones | Flosshilde – Maureen Guy | 1st Norn – Helen Watts | 2nd Norn – Grace Hoffman | 3rd Norn – Anita Välkki | Wiener Staatsopernchor Wiener Philharmoniker \/ Sir Georg Solti\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCommemorating the 25th anniversary of Sir Georg Solti’s passing “The Greatest Recording Of All Time” Now sounding better than ever before Transferred and remastered in HD sound at 24bit \/ 192kHz from the original two-track stereo mastertapes.

This record was pressed from a master cut using a precision technique known as half-speed mastering. The procedure requires the source master and the cutting lathe to run at half speed on a specially adapted Neumann VMS-80 lathe. This rare and specialized technique transforms difficult to cut high-end frequencies into relatively easy to cut mid-range frequencies. The result is a cut with excellent high frequency response and very sold and stable stereo images. In short, half-speed mastering produces a master of the highest quality that enables the pressing plant to produce a superlative record.

After attending the Bela Bartók Conservatory, he graduated from the Liszt Academy where he was a member of a distinguished troika of Hungarian pianists—with Dezsö Ránki and András Schiff—who emanated from the late 1960s class of Pál Kadosa; here, he also studied with Ferenc Rados and György Kurtág. At eighteen, Kocsis won the Hungarian Radio Beethoven Competition, which led to an extensive tour, and also the pianist’s first recording opportunity. Celebrated for his versatile technique, Kocsis was also meticulous in his study of texts and sources, and brought a scholarly, inquiring mind to the art of performance. Inventive programming and contemporary repertoire were features of his orchestral and solo piano programmes. His recordings for Philips of Bartók’s complete works for solo piano stand as a definitive treatment of the composer’s art. He also recorded Bartók’s three piano concertos with conductor Iván Fischer, with whom he had co-founded the Budapest Festival Orchestra. Beyond Bartók—whose works he also conducted with idiomatic richness—Kocsis made acclaimed recordings of Debussy, Rachmaninoff, Liszt and Dohnányi. Drawing on his talents as a composer, he made his own transcription of Rachmaninov’s Vocalise, concluding with imaginatively virtuosic figuration. His transcription of the Prelude to Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde, which at the climax spills on to multiple staves, deployed virtuosity to project the heights of passion. Virtuosity aside, the other predominant characteristic of his performances was the pellucid tone, consistently sensuous even in passages of heightened emotion, enhanced by the singing quality he unfailingly brought to melodic lines. Had Kocsis recorded nothing else, his Bartók legacy alone would secure his place among history’s greatest pianists. Still, this comprehensive edition of his Philips piano recordings—marking what would have been his 70th birthday—proves that, in the end, the best specialists are the most universal of musicians.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD 1-2\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.

They first sat down to play together as undergraduates during their inaugural term at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge, in Autumn 1968. Soon after graduating in 1971 they were booked for their first professional appointment, as Quartet-in-Residence in Wilfrid Meller’s new Music Department at York University (succeeding the Amadeus Quartet). The Fitzwilliam was one of the first of a long line of eminent quartets to have emerged under the guidance of Sidney Griller at the Royal Academy of Music. They quickly achieved international recognition for their diverse repertoire and were winners of the first-ever Gramophone Award for Chamber Music.

He said of his work ‘One must certainly not by tyrannical. A conductor must immerse himself in the possibilities of each and every orchestra member and bring everything out of them.’ It was a huge shock, when during a rehearsal of Brahms’ First Symphony on 13 April 1959, van Beinum suffered a fatal heart attack on the podium in the Concertgebouw at the age of just 58. His qualities as a musician had perhaps not been fully appreciated during his lifetime, but after his death, his recordings allow us to re-evaluate his impeccable musical intuition, his good taste and the spontaneity of his music-making. Collected here in one edition that predominately features the two orchestras he was Principal Conductor of — the Concertgebouworkest \u0026amp; London Philharmonic Orchestra — are the complete recordings he made for both Decca and Philips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHighlights include:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n- A sparkling interpretation of Beethoven’s ballet music to The Creature of Prometheus with the LPO\u003cbr\u003e\n- Brahms’ Symphony cycle recorded with the Concertgebouworkest – a radically modern approach for the time they were made\u003cbr\u003e\n- Lauded recordings of Ravel’s Rapsodie espagnole (1946) ‘Without question, this is the best recording we have had of this pungently evocative work.’ — Gramophone; Boléro and La Valse and Debussy’s La Mer, Stravinsky’s Le Sacre du Printemps (1946) ‘A truly brilliant recording, bringing out more of the score than I should have thought possible’ — Gramophone\u003cbr\u003e\n- Berlioz’ Symphonie fantastique (one of his most celebrated recordings full of incisive precision and spontaneous explosive abandon)\u003cbr\u003e\n- Reference recordings of Bruckner’s 7, 8 \u0026amp; 9th Symphonies – “Bruckner is my bread and butter” said Van Beinum\u003cbr\u003e\n- Diapason d’Or award-winning recordings of Mendelssohn’s Symphony No.4 \u0026amp; A Midsummer Night’s Dream (CO) \u0026amp; Hebrides Overture (LPO)\u003cbr\u003e\n- A series of 78rpm recordings made for ‘Dutch Decca’, Telefunken \u0026amp; Deutsche Grammophon, including many works van Beinum never recorded commercially, such as Richard Strauss’s Don Juan and Smetana’s Vltava – all released for the first time in nearly 70 years, in new hi-res transfers made especially for this collection\u003cbr\u003e\n- Bonus Audio documentary feature produced by Jon Tolansky, with commentary by a number of musicians who worked with Eduard van Beinum\u003cbr\u003e\n- 102pp book (English\/Dutch\/French\/German) with essays by music historian Niek Nelissen and Jon Tolansky\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKS:\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n1    J.S.

Besides his modesty, his humanity, his musical taste, and his honesty to the music, three words come to mind when one thinks of Haitink and his orchestra:  Sound, Trust and Magic.  Jörgen van Rijen, Principal trombone of the Concertgebouworkest, said at a memorial concert in February this year, “Every time with him [Haitink] the orchestra sounded warmer, deeper and richer, from the first moment he started to rehearse.  How he did that is difficult to tell … he always gave us musicians the feeling he trusted you, that he was there to help, not to interfere.”  Together they left a vast recorded legacy which is now collected in one edition for the first time on 113 CDs + 4 DVDs with original sleeves and presented with a 170pp book (EN\/FR\/DE\/JP) with authoritative notes by Niek Nelissen, a foreword by Patricia Haitink and tributes from many fellow musicians.

He joined the hallowed choir of King’s College, Cambridge, at age 11 under Boris Ord, and would later take up the position of organ scholar at King’s as an undergraduate in 1958 under Sir David Willcocks. Willcocks was a huge influence, with his meticulous and rigorous approach to practice and insistence on perfection in performance which can be seen throughout Preston’s career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen he took his first post at Westminster Abbey, in 1962, he was said to be the youngest organist at the royal church since Henry Purcell, three centuries earlier. After a briefly covering for Peter Hurford as Master of the Music at St. Albans Cathedral in 1968, he took charge of the choir at Christ Church Cathedral in Oxford in 1970; he also lectured at the university. He brought out a fervent, firm tone and an impressive agility in the choir of Christ Church —just as he would when he later returned to Westminster Abbey, before concentrating on a career as an international concert and recording artist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen he arrived at Christ Church, Preston was very much the “new broom”. His intelligence and erudition as a scholar together with his innate superhuman energy re-vitalised the choir with a verve not often apparent in the genteel world of English cathedral music and it was not long before there was an ambition to make recordings, the first of which was of Walton’s music. With a judicious choice of repertory, the subsequent discs garnered excellent reviews and the cathedral choir began to be recognised as one of the finest collegiate choirs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTogether they set down acclaimed accounts — often with the period instrument specialists of the English Concert and the Academy of Ancient Music — of composers from Haydn back to Handel and Purcell, and beyond to Lassus and Palestrina. The discs in this set — their complete recordings on the Argo and L’Oiseau-Lyre labels — are testimony to Preston’s remarkable achievements there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e• Collected here in one edition are the complete Argo and L’Oiseau-Lyre recordings of Simon Preston conducting the Choir of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford\u003cbr\u003e\n• 19 CDs in original jackets\u003cbr\u003e\n• Highlights include acclaimed accounts of composers from Haydn back to Handel and Purcell, and beyond to Lassus and Palestrina\u003cbr\u003e\n• The recordings are accompanied by a 32pp book with new notes by conductor, choirmaster and composer Ronald Corp, who was a chorister under Preston\u003cbr\u003e\n• Two-piece rigid lift-off lid box\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003cbr\u003e\nCD1 - BYRD\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n1.

He held the status of Toscanini, Furtwängler, Walter, Beecham, Stokowski, and Koussevitzky, although in approach and interpretation he had little in common with any of them, other than Toscanini. The comparison is fourfold: their art is marked by a total fidelity to the score; they bore similarities in dramatic temperament; in the fastidious attention to contrasting detail and nuance; and in the razor-sharp rhythmic attack and tight precision of the playing they obtained. Kleiber’s repertoire for Decca mirrored that of his London concerts: symphonies by Mozart and Beethoven, overtures by Dvořák and Handel as well as Strauss-family favourites; all done with superb attention to rhythmic lift and dynamic balance so that combined with Decca’s pioneering ‘ffrr’ technology – full frequency range recording – listeners could (and still can) hear inside the scores to a degree remarkable for the late 1940s. Kleiber was ‘a conductor’s conductor’, observed a reviewer for The Spectator, seeing him in concert at the time of these recordings; a conductor who obtained precisely what he wanted with ‘instinctive ease and economy of means’. Collected together in this set are his complete recordings for Decca – from those early 78s through to the last piece he was to record: Die Schlittenfahrt (The Sleighride) from Mozart’s Three German Dances K605 – and a bonus audio documentary presented by Jon Tolansky which provides compelling first-hand evidence of just how highly musicians regarded him.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKS:\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n1    JOSEF STRAUSS: Sphärenklänge, Op. 235     \u003cbr\u003e\n2    J.

Both were students of Alfred Schroeder, who had himself been a pupil of and teaching assistant to Artur Schnabel, with whom he also played piano duets. It was Schroeder who encouraged his two young pupils to play together. Their careers received a significant boost in 1958 when the duo appeared on a TV program hosted by Ed Sullivan featuring up-and-coming Israeli talent – which included a 13-year-old violin prodigy named Itzhak Perlman (recent winner of the Gramophone Lifetime Achievement Award). This new edition of their complete recordings for Decca encompasses the majority of works at the heart of the piano duo canon. When their Decca debut LP (CD1) was first issued, the famously hard-to-please High Fidelity magazine piano critic Harris Goldsmith positively raved about their Rachmaninov, Milhaud, Poulenc and Lutosławski, “It is obviously first-classs … entirely fresh and spontaneous. Individually, the pianism sounds brilliant and limpid at the same time; in terms of ensemble playing, it has extraordinary give and take.” It is also worth mentioning that the duo were the first to perform Lutosławski’s Paganini Variations outside Poland. Other highlights in the set include their “clairvoyant teamwork” in Brahms’ Hungarian Dances \u0026amp; Dvorák’s Slavonic Dances, Stravinsky’s arrangement for four hands of The Rite of Spring, Poulenc’s Two-Piano Concerto; Satie’s Trois morceaux en forme de poire, Schubert’s Grand Duo, their survey of the then-rarely performed Liszt Opera paraphrases for two pianos and their final Decca project encompassing all of Mozart’s works for two pianos or four hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003cbr\u003e\nCD1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRACHMANINOV Suite No.2 for 2 Pianos*; MILHAUD Scaramouche Suite for 2 Pianos; POULENC Piano Sonata for 4 Hands; LUTOSLAWSKI Variations on a Theme by Paganini\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD2\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBRAHMS Piano Quintet in F minor arr. as Sonata for 2 Pianos*; SAINT-SAENS Variations for Two Pianos on a theme of Beethoven*\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD3\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBARTOK Sonata for 2 Pianos \u0026amp; Percussion (w\/ James Holland \u0026amp; Tristan Fry)*; POULENC Sonata for Two Pianos\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD4\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBRAHMS: Hungarian Dance Nos. 1–10 for Piano Duet*; DVORAK 8 Slavonic Dances for Piano Duet* (first time Dvorak issued as complete on CD)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD5\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSTRAVINSKY 5 Easy Pieces for Piano Duet*; Three Easy Pieces for Piano Duet*; Le Sacre du Printemps – Version for Piano Duet (published 1913)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD6\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n“Two Piano Encores”\u003cbr\u003e\nRACHMANINOV Suite No.1 for 2 Pianos – I.

This record was pressed from a master cut using a precision technique known as half-speed mastering. The procedure requires the source master and the cutting lathe to run at half speed on a specially adapted Neumann VMS-80 lathe. This rare and specialized technique transforms difficult to cut high-end frequencies into relatively easy to cut mid-range frequencies. The result is a cut with excellent high frequency response and very sold and stable stereo images. In short, half-speed mastering produces a master of the highest quality that enables the pressing plant to produce a superlative record.

In his deeply moving score, Britten set the entire text of the Latin Requiem Mass and interpolated nine of Wilfred Owen’s harrowing poems from the trenches. Britten organised the performers into three distinct but overlapping groups: full orchestra, chorus and soprano soloist for the Latin texts; a chamber ensemble with tenor and baritone soloists for Owen’s verses; and a distant boys’ choir; His choices for the three soloists were laden with deep meaning: the British tenor Peter Pears; the German baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau; and the Russian soprano Galina Vishnevskaya (who was ultimately barred by the Soviet regime from traveling to England for the premiere, and was replaced at less than two weeks’ notice by Heather Harper) to represent reconciliation between the three front-line casualties of 20th-century European conflict. Notwithstanding a few bumps, the impact of the performance spread immediately and critical reaction created momentum for a commercial recording.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nRecorded between January 3 and 10, 1963, in London’s Kingsway Hall by Decca’s ‘dream team’ of producer John Culshaw and engineer Kenneth Wilkinson, Britten’s ideals were achieved when the provincial forces in Coventry were replaced by the London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, the Bach Choir (trained by David Willcocks), and the boys of Highgate School.  The Melos Ensemble returned, and one year after the premiere, the triumvirate of soloists, Britten had written The War Requiem for were united, with Britten conducting the performance.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nUnbeknownst to the composer, the soloists and the orchestra, Culshaw kept the microphones open and the tapes running in both the hall and the control room during rehearsals. On the occasion of Britten’s fiftieth birthday, he was given a presentation LP of rehearsal excerpts with its own label and catalogue number, BB50.  Undoubtedly offered with the best of intentions, the gift was received with less than the positive response intended, owing to Britten’s deep sense of privacy and his particular sensitivities around this work especially. It wasn’t until fifty years later, it was deemed reason to put on one side Britten’s prohibition and to assess the tape as a contribution to our knowledge of him as a performer and interpreter of his own music and to our understanding of the \u003cem\u003eWar Requiem\u003c\/em\u003e itself. On the one hand, it affords a glimpse into how Britten worked (as composer\/conductor), and on the other, perhaps of more import, is how fundamental to the original concept and interpretation of the work was the intent to disturb, discomfort, confront and shock its audiences out of a passive acceptance of the annihilation of war. The rehearsals are presented here on LP for the first time since the sole pressing gifted by Decca to Britten on his 50th birthday in November 1963.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003e* Mastering to lacquer at half-speed has the advantage of halving the high-frequency energy passing through the cutterhead, producing a cleaner and more precise top-end of the audio spectrum due to a more accurately etched groove.

Originally founded as a publishing venture called Editions de L’Oiseau-Lyre in Paris in 1932, the recording side was acquired by Decca in 1970. The label came to represent the highest standard in original instrument performance, based on the most recent research into the original texts, instrumentation and performing styles. The label represented, in some senses, the dawn of “Western” Music as we know it. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDirected by Peter \u0026amp; Timothy Davies, The Medieval Ensemble of London was a clear successor to David Munrow in the area of ‘early music’. This box set brings together their pioneering work and represents the complete catalogue recorded by the group for L’Oiseau-Lyre and issued on their Florilegium series between 1980 and 1985. Their performance activity during the 1970s and early 1980s coincided with a peak of interest in music of the medieval and Renaissance eras, when the music was becoming ever more available to performers through ground-breaking editions, and performance styles were refined following the experimental methods of the previous generation. It was the availability of editions that allowed The Medieval Ensemble of London to develop its approach of recording the complete secular works of certain prominent late-medieval and Renaissance composers. This initiative led to some recordings of unprecedented length – 6 LPs in the case of Du Fay’s secular music – that would prove to be enormously influential and which remain to the present day the unique recordings of certain pieces.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD 1\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eMATTEO DA PERUGIA Secular Works\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCDs 2–6\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eDU FAY Complete Secular Music\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCDs 7 \u0026amp; 8 \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eOCKEGHEM Complete Secular Music\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 9\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCe Diabolic Chant: Ballades, Rondeaus and Virelais of the late 14th century (GALIOT · GUIDO · OLIVIER · SENLECHES · SUZOY)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 10\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eMACHAUT 2 Polyphonic Lais\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 11\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eMi Verry Joy: Songs of 15th-century Englishmen (BEDYNGHAM · DUNSTABLE · FRYE · HERT)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 12 \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eISAAC Chansons, Frottole \u0026amp; Lieder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 13\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eJOSQUIN DESPREZ Missa di dadi · Missa “Faisant regretz”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 14\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eJOSQUIN Secular Music\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Medieval Ensemble Of London","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46912126419260,"sku":"4854676","price":74.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0410\/8860\/files\/large-MEL.png?v=1745363194"},{"product_id":"jose-carreras-the-philips-years-21cd-box-set","title":"José Carreras - The Philips Years: 21CD Box Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eCelebrating one of the most remarkable tenors of our time, this 21-CD set brings together the legendary Philips recital recordings of José Carreras:  17 CDs of recitals discs ranging from opera to Spanish and popular songs + 3 CDs of highlights from complete opera recordings + 1 CD with an audio documentary presented by Jon Tolansky.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 1: José Carreras Sings Donizetti, Bellini, Verdi, Mercadante, Ponchielli     RPO\/Benzi\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 2: Popular Songs                                                                           ECO\/Benzi\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 3: Zarzuela: José Carreras Sings Spanish Arias                   ECO\/Ros-Marbà\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 4: José Carreras Sings Francesco Paolo Tosti                     ECO\/Müller C\u003cbr\u003e\nD 5: Puccini ∙ Verdi ∙ Donizetti: Love Duets (Katia Ricciarelli)             LSO\/Gardelli\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 6: Opera Arias                                                                               LSO\/López-Cobos\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 7: Romantico (Canciones Románticas)                                 ECO\/Stapleton\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 8: O Sole Mio                                                                                 ECO\/Müller\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 9: Verdi · Donizetti · Rossini                                                       LPO\/López-Cobos\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 10: Ave Maria                                                                                 Wiener Sängerknaben · Chorus Viennensis · WS\/Harrer\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 11: You Belong to My Heart                                                       ECO\/García Asensio\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 12: Love Is...

Their first recordings were made in January 1960 and released on Contemporary Records. These came about as a result of André Previn seeing the fifteen-year-old Pepe Romero in performance, on a bill with stand-up comedian Lord Buckley, in Los Angeles in 1959. The two recordings, ‘Flamenco Fenómeno’ and ‘Spanish Guitar Music’ are included in this set (CDs 9 and 10) as bonuses to the Mercury recordings. The first 8 CDs comprise the ‘Royal Family of the Guitar’ in their complete Mercury Recordings, made between 1962 and 1967. Much of the material on this set – superbly remastered by Thomas Fine – makes its first appearance on CD and digital media. The extensive booklet consists of original liner notes by such authorities as Igor Kipnis, texts for the vocal items, and includes the miniature illustrations that adorned the backs of the original LP sleeves. In addition, there is a note by Los Romeros authority, Walter Aaron Clark (author of Los Romeros: Royal Family of the Spanish Guitar) as well as a ‘Sessionography’ detailing the background to each of the Mercury recordings, by Thomas Fine.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003cbr\u003e\nCD 1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Royal Family of the Spanish Guitar\u003cbr\u003e\nLOS ROMEROS\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCD 2\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nGuitar Music from the Courts of Spain\u003cbr\u003e\nCELEDONIO ROMERO\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCD 3\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFlamenco\u003cbr\u003e\nPEPE ROMERO\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCD 4\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nBaroque Concertos and Solo Works\u003cbr\u003e\nLOS ROMEROS\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCD 5\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAn Evening of Flamenco Music\u003cbr\u003e\nLOS ROMEROS\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCD 6\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nWorld of Flamenco\u003cbr\u003e\nLOS ROMEROS, WITH JALEO    CD 7\u003cbr\u003e\nVivaldi Guitar Concertos\u003cbr\u003e\nLOS ROMEROS\u003cbr\u003e\nSAN ANTONIO SYMPHONY \/ VICTOR ALESSANDRO\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCD 8\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRodrigo\u003cbr\u003e\nConcierto andaluz\u003cbr\u003e\nConcierto de Aranjuez\u003cbr\u003e\nLOS ROMEROS\u003cbr\u003e\nSAN ANTONIO SYMPHONY \/ VICTOR ALESSANDRO\u003cbr\u003e\nBONUS \u003cbr\u003e\nLos Romeros on Contemporary Records\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCD 9\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nFlamenco Fenómeno!\u003cbr\u003e\nPEPE ROMERO \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCD 10\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSpanish Guitar Music\u003cbr\u003e\nCELEDONIO ROMERO · CELIN ROMERO\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Los Romeros","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47773267296572,"sku":"4854015","price":69.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0410\/8860\/files\/large-los_romeros.jpg?v=1745362620"},{"product_id":"die-walkure-vinyl-5lp-bos-set","title":"Die Walküre: Vinyl 5LP Bos Set","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCast List:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSiegmund – James King\u003cbr\u003eSieglinde – Régine Crespin \u003cbr\u003eHunding – Gottlob Frick\u003cbr\u003eWotan – Hans Hotter\u003cbr\u003eBrünnhilde – Birgit Nilsson\u003cbr\u003eFricka – Christa Ludwig\u003cbr\u003e8 Walküren · Valkyries\u003cbr\u003eWaltraute – Brigitte Fassbaender\u003cbr\u003eOrtlinde – Helga Dernesch\u003cbr\u003eHelmwige – Berit Lindholm\u003cbr\u003eGerhilde – Vera Schlosser\u003cbr\u003eSiegrune – Vera Little\u003cbr\u003eSchwertleite – Helen Watts\u003cbr\u003eRossweisse – Claudia Hellmann\u003cbr\u003eGrimgerde – Marilyn Tyler\u003cbr\u003eWiener Philharmoniker \/ Sir Georg Solti\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCommemorating the 25th anniversary of Sir Georg Solti’s passing “The Greatest Recording Of All Time” Now sounding better than ever before. \u003cbr\u003e• Transferred and remastered in HD sound at 24bit \/ 192kHz from the original two-track stereo mastertapes\u003cbr\u003e• The first all-new transfer in over twenty-five years\u003cbr\u003e• The first-ever stereo production of Wagner’s Ring cycle, still considered the benchmark today.\u003cbr\u003e• “Here is the greatest achievement in gramophone history yet”, wrote Gramophone in 1965.

At the frontier of modernity, he offered up recordings of music by several composers whom he counted among his friends: Debussy, Ravel, Roussel and Stravinsky but also Honegger, Frank Martin, Bartók and Prokofiev – all of whom are represented in this collection of recordings made for Decca between 1929 and 1955. The collection opens with a recording of six of Handel’s Op. 6 Concerti Grossi made with a specially formed band of London musicians, the ‘Decca String Orchestra’ in 1929, the year in which the label was founded. Ansermet returned to the studio to record for the label from 1946 and from then on became one of its most frequently recorded conductors. Fortunately, the music of his friend Igor Stravinsky is strongly represented in this collection. Of other composers Ansermet knew personally, several landmark recordings of works by Maurice Ravel are significant. 1952 was a particularly busy year for the conductor and his Orchestre de la Suisse Romande - with recordings of Handel, Prokofiev as well as his famous interpretation of Debussy's \"Pelléas et Mélisande\". An orchestral version of Mussorgsky's two-minute \"Gopak\" was recorded as the last work in this collection. The stereo recording from 1955 was only available as a test pressing - this box presents it as a veritable world premiere.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ernest Ansermet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48010652647740,"sku":"4851584","price":149.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0410\/8860\/files\/485_1584_284_29_Ansermet_-_Mono_Years_3D_22d37c33-0d6b-4ddd-a92d-cd37dae6a16d.jpg?v=1748860146"},{"product_id":"the-complete-vega-recordings-reissue-13cd-box-set","title":"The Complete Vega Recordings (Reissue): 13CD Box Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen the definitive history of 20th-century music comes to be written, Yvonne Loriod will find an honoured place as one of the most influential musicians of the time, not only due to her unique relationship with Messiaen (muse, inspirateur, interpreter), but as a devoted teacher, a dedicated champion of contemporary composers and a phenomenal pianist with a breathtakingly wide repertoire.

He recorded for most of Decca’s imprints – L’Oiseau-Lyre, Decca, Argo, and by acquisition, Philips Classics. He also recorded extensively for EMI and, in the final chapter of his discographical history, Hanssler Classics.\u003cbr\u003eKnown and celebrated for his recordings of Baroque music and of Mozart, Marriner also made highly-desired recordings of Beethoven with ‘his’ Academy of St. Martin in the Fields – a chapter in his recorded history being gathered together for the first time.\u003cbr\u003eIn September 1970 he set down recordings of Beethoven’s first two symphonies for Philips. These were first included in a 4-LP set entitled ‘The Rise of the Symphony’ (6707 013). One more symphony, No. 4, coupled with a string-orchestra transcription of the ‘Grosse Fuge’ was set down in December 1974. Perhaps a complete Beethoven symphony cycle was never envisaged at the time, for it wasn’t until the 1980s that recordings of Beethoven symphonies gathered momentum, starting with the ‘Eroica’ in 1982 and concluding with the Ninth in April 1989.\u003cbr\u003eTwo recordings of the Violin Concerto were also made: with long-standing leader of the Academy, Iona Brown (herself also a conductor) in January 1980 for Argo, and quite surprisingly, again in December that year with Gidon Kremer for Philips, who incorporated two of the Schnittke cadenzas into his performance.

It all includes some of her earliest recordings, four of which, recorded in 1958 with Richard Bonynge at the piano are being published on Decca for the first time, and a set of French songs which were discovered some years ago at the end of the tapes for the French Opera Arias set. Sutherland was also invited to participate in recordings of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony by Ernest Ansermet and Hans Schmidt-Isserstedt, and these are included, as are two versions of Handel’s Messiah (Boult, Bonynge) and the Solti recording of Verdi’s Requiem. Relative rarities come in the form of an all-Wagner disc (a composer many thought Sutherland was born to sing), bonused with her appearance as the Woodbird in the Solti Ring; Bliss’s A Song of Welcome (from 1954 – her very first studio recording); and Bach’s Cantata ‘Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben’ (Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring). For her final Decca recital recording, Sutherland teamed up with fellow Australian, hornist Barry Tuckwell, for a disc of Romantic Trios, with her husband Richard Bonynge at the piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCD 1\u003cbr\u003eBLISS: A Song of Welcome\u003cbr\u003eSIR ARTHUR BLISS \u003cbr\u003eJ.S.

Spirituality, a luxuriant tonal palette, a real sense of architecture, breadth, grandeur, all allied to a prodigious technique – these were just some of the qualities that informed his playing. Now, for the first time, Decca collects all the recordings he made for the label, from 1977 to 1990.
