Description: Igor Marchevitch Beethoven Symphonies No.1 3 5 6 8 9 & Overtures 4CD Japan Description New Title: Igor Markevitch - Beethoven Symphonies No.1,3,5,6,8,9 & Overtures Artist: Igor Markevitch,Orchestre Des Concerts Lamoureux,The Symphony of the Air Product Type: CD Number of Discs: 4 A collection of Beethoven's symphonies and overtures for DG & PHILIPS. The series of stereo recordings with the Lamoureux Orchestra, including the "Ninth Symphony," are particularly outstanding. This is Markevitch's Beethoven: Symphonies and Overtures (only the "Numeration Day" overture is recorded alongside Brahms' Symphony No. 4, with an emphasis on the original) including the stereo recordings of No. 1, 5, 8, and 9 with the Lamoureux Orchestra on the PHLIPS masters, the mono recordings of the DG masters (No. 6 with the Lamoureux Orchestra and No. 3 with Symphony of the Air), and the stereo recordings with the Lamoureux Orchestra on the DG masters that were released as a standalone "overture collection" when the LP was first released. Unfortunately, he did not record all of his symphonies, but his interpretation of Beethoven that can be heard here is a stoic image of Beethoven that is based on an absolute evaluation of the classics. This is a vivid record of a condensed period of just over four years, beginning with "Heroic" recorded in December 1956 (DG's first American recording) with the Symphony of the Air, which had just resumed operations after Toscanini's death under a different name. It ends with "Symphony No. 9" recorded in January 1961. - U.S. Decca source, with Markevich interview - Uses the original jacket from the first LP release in various places - Uses high-bit, high-sampling (24-bit, 192-khz) sound source from the original master (Symphonies No. 1 and 9) - Partially mono recording (Symphonies No. 3 and 6, Markevitch interview) [TRACKLIST] Beethoven: [CD1] 1.
