Lorin Maazel - The Cleveland Years Complete Recordings [19CD Box Set] (2014) FLAC



Artist: Lorin Maazel
Title Of Album: The Cleveland Years Complete Recordings
Year Of Release: 2014
Label (Catalog#): Decca
Country: Germany

Time: 19 CD
Full Size: 5,51 Gb

"Between 1972 and 1982 Maazel was Music Director of The Cleveland Orchestra and between 1973-79 made a series of recordings for Decca – all of which are collected here.
The repertory includes many orchestral spectaculars and Decca’s first recording in Cleveland, Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet, is one of the very best and a recording which has achieved reference status. “…. The precision of The Cleveland Orchestra is little short of miraculous… the recording is one of Decca’s most spectacular, searingly detailed but atmospheric too.” [The Penguin Guide] Another highlight of Maazel’s Decca / Cleveland discography is the 1975 recording of Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess. This was the first complete stereo recording of the work and Gramophone was lavish in its praise: “ The actual sound quality is amazingly vivid… the sound remains electrically brilliant with the brass and percussion superbly caught… his masterpiece has at last been so triumphantly presented on record. It is above all a triumph for Lorin Maazel, arguably his richest recorded performance to date.”

Sir Neville Marriner - The London Recordings (Box Set 14CDs) (2018) FLAC

Sir Neville Marriner founded the Academy of St Martin in the Fields in 1958, and led the ensemble for over half a century. He became the face of recorded classical music for millions of listeners, as Toscanini, Bernstein and Karajan had been before. In later years, Capriccio stepped in when other labels showed no interest in recording the Academy in larger-scale, romantic repertoire, exemplified by the set of Tchaikovsky symphonies that are the focal point of this 14-CD collection. 'The members of the Academy, trained on quite different repertory, let their hair down in playing that is both crisp and alert, obviously enjoying their outing into this pop repertory' Edward Greenfield, Gramophone.

Sony Music Entertainment presents Vladimir Horowitz Live at Carnegie Hall, a deluxe CD edition that gathers together the complete RCA and Columbia recitals that the legendary pianist recorded live at Carnegie Hall between 1951 and 1978 including eight previously unreleased complete concerts, as well as 48 works in previously unreleased recordings all on 41 CDs and a DVD.
Since Horowitz accurately claimed that he never played any piece the same way twice, piano-lovers now have the opportunity to hear multiple performances of certain works, and to compare how Horowitz responds to different audiences on different days with variations in nuance, tone color, touch, dynamics, tempo, phrasing, and pedaling.
This deluxe edition is accompanied by a 300-pages hardcover book with an introduction by Jed Distler profiling Horowitz and his special relationship with Carnegie Hall, a brief history of Carnegie Hall, an introduction to the previously unreleased recordings from Horowitz's Private Collection, and facsimiles of concert flyers and tickets, as well as comprehensive track listings and historic photographs.

Johanna Martzy - The complete DG and EMI Recordings (2013) FLAC



Artist: Johanna Martzy
Title Of Album: The complete DG and EMI Recordings
Year Of Release: 2013

Country: South Korea
Genre: Classical

Bitrate: Lossless

For years Johanna Martzy's 1954-55 solo Bach recordings for EMI commanded huge sums on out-of-print LP lists, even after they were reissued in a French budget CD box alongside Janos Starker's EMI Bach Suites... Martzy tends to favor slow tempos, yet she holds interest by virtue of her hefty tone (what richness she gets from the lowest strings!), subtle dynamic variations, and expressive vibrato. If she doesn't match the elder Szigeti's harmonic intensity, her superior intonation and steadier bow arm compensate, save for her sometimes labored execution in the E major Preludio.
That said, I find faster movements such as the G minor Presto, A minor Allegro, and C major Allegro assai rather square and uneventful in Martzy's hands, while her C major Fuga and both B minor and D minor Correntes sound relatively flaccid and under-characterized in comparison with James Ehnes' comparably measured traversals. But the hushed, sustained intensity with which she imbues softer, more introspective music such as the great D minor Chaconne's central major section and the A minor Andante easily explain why certain collectors fawned over Martzy.
Franz Schubert was a competent violinist and violist and his four violin sonatas pose no problems for skilled players. It is strange, then, that so few really recommendable recordings of them have been made. It is therefore no surprise that these beautiful interpretations by Johanna Martzy and Jean Antonietti have become legendary. These performers bring beautiful, meticulously prepared playing to all half dozen pieces. Their interpretations, which are well balanced and clearly recorded for the time, have an inherent strength but also pliancy, transparency and unsentimental sweetness where required.

Few record labels from the dawn of the LP era are recalled with more admiration and affection than Westminster Records – its first records from 1950 established Westminster as a pioneering source, exploring new and exciting corners of repertoire.

The Westminster box gives a cross-section of Westminster’s activity in all genres, from solo piano recordings (J?rg Demus, Paul Badura-Skoda, Clara Haskil, Egon Petri) to complete operas (Handel’s Rodelinda with Teresa Stich-Randall, Maureen Forrester, Alexander Young, conducted by Brian Priestman, receiving its CD premiere) to orchestral recordings by the legendary conductors Hermann Scherchen and Artur Rodzinski. Many of these albums have never been released internationally before on CD.
