Album Description
Comprised entirely of previously unreleased recordings, this four-CD set presents classic, headline-generating performances by the London Symphony Orchestra with conductor Karl Böhm at the Salzburg Festival. The recordings, dating from 1973 to 1977, feature pianist Emil Gilels and violinist Henryk Szeryng and include Mozart's Symphonies No. 28 and No. 35 ("Haffner"), Beethoven's Symphony No. 7, Brahms's Symphony No. 2 and the tone-poem Death and Transfiguration by Richard Strauss. Illustrated with photos from the LSO archive, the 96-page booklet features an introduction by Pulitzer Prize–winner Tim Page, essays by LSO authority Jon Tolansky and noted British critic and author Richard Osborne ("Karl Böhm With the LSO: Old-School Wisdom and Youthful Fire"), as well as detailed artist biographies from The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. The four-disc set is sold for the price of three, with Death and Transfiguration coming on a bonus CD.

Album Description

Dating from 1973 to 1977, the recordings also feature pianist Emil Gilels (in the Schumann Piano Concerto) and violinist Henryk Szeryng (in a concerto once attributed to Mozart). A veritable symbol of Central European values, Böhm leads the LSO in Mozart's Symphonies No. 28 and No. 35 ("Haffner"), Beethoven's Symphony No. 7, Schumann's Symphony No. 4 and Brahms' Symphony No. 2. The four-disc set is sold for the price of three, with the Richard Strauss tone poem Death and Transfiguration as a bonus CD. The Austrian Radio (ORF) stereo tapes were digitally mastered by Ton Eichinger Studio in Vienna.

Illustrated with photos from the LSO archive, the 96-page booklet features an introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winner Tim Page, a note by LSO authority Jon Tolansky and an essay by notable British critic/author Richard Osborne ("Karl Böhm with the LSO: Old-School Wisdom and Youthful Fire"), as well as detailed artist biographies from "The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians." All texts appear in English, French and German.
