To celebrate Claudio Abbados 80th birthday (June 26, 2013), DG has prepared this comprehensive 41-CD box set devoted to his recordings of symphonic repertoire. Abbados career with Deutsche Grammophon stretches back over more than four decades. In that time he has made innumerable recordings that have stood the test of time. In opera, in modern music, as a partner in concerto recordings, Abbado has left a glorious indelible mark. In more recent years, every Abbado recording has been an event, something special whether his Mahler symphonies with Berlin, or the Mozart, Bach and Pergolesi projects with his Orchestra Mozart. And, of course, as a sponsor and champion of new orchestras he is unrivalled not least with his most recent creations, the Lucerne Festival Orchestra and the Orchestra Mozart. The box set includes: Complete recordings of eight great composers Mozart (with Orchestra Mozart), Haydn, Beethoven (with Berliner Philharmoniker), Schubert, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Bruckner and Mahler (with Berliner Phliharmoniker and Lucerne festival Orchestra) Featuring seven of the orchestras with whom Abbado is most closely associated: Orchestra Mozart, Chamber Orchestra of Europe, London Symphony, Berliner Philharmoniker, Wiener Philharmoniker, Mahler Chamber Orchestra and Lucerne Festival Orchestra All recordings have been personally selected by Claudio Abbado Bruckners First Symphony a special addition: at Abbados request this recording is being released here for the first time anywhere CD 1 3 MOZART (3 CDs)ASIN: B00BN1QV0SVSKU: LFV.B00BN1QV0S.VGCondition: Very GoodAuthor/Artist:Franz Joseph Haydn|Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart|Ludwig van Beethoven|Franz Schubert|Johannes Brahms|Claudio Abbado|Gustav Mahler|Anton Bruckner|Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra|Berlin Philharmonic OrchestraBinding: Audio cdNote: Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.
