Deluxe 180 Gram 14LP Box Set! Direct Metal Master From the Original Mono Analogue Tapes presented with its Original Dynamics!
Remastered by Ludger Bockenhoff & Direct Metal Mastered by Hendirck Pauler! Pressed in Germany on 180g Virgin Vinyl!
Audite's acclaimed Furtwangler boxed set is now available for the first time on the LP format for Audiophile Vinyl Enthusiasts! The prestigious label now presents a selection containing compositions by Beethoven, Bruckner, Schubert, Brahms and Wagner on 14 LPs of 180g Virgin Vinyl!
The majority of the concerts given by Wilhelm Furtwangler and the Berlin Philharmonic between 1947 and 1954 were recorded by the RIAS Berlin. The original tapes from the RIAS archives have been made available for the first time for this edition so these recordings offer Unsurpassed Technical Quality!
A number of works - the Third, Fifth and Sixth Symphonies by Beethoven as well as Johannes Brahms' Third Symphony - are included in two interpretations. They reveal how Furtwangler was able to accentuate different aspects of a work whilst maintaining the same, clear basic conception - and how the actual interpretation depended on the context of the particular program.
This production is part of Audite's "Legendary Recordings" series and bears the quality features "1st Master Release". This term stands for the excellent quality of archival productions at Audite. For all historical publications at Audite are based, without exception, on the Original Tapes from broadcasting archives. In general these are the Original Analogue Tapes, which attain an Astonishingly High Quality, even measured by today's standards, with their tape speed of up to 76 cm/sec. The remastering - professionally competent and sensitively applied - also uncovers previously hidden details of the interpretations. Thus, a Sound of Superior Quality results! CD publications based on private recordings from broadcasts or old shellac records cannot be compared with this incredible 14LP 180g Vinyl Deluxe Box Set.
