About
With their 125 Years deluxe CD box set they want to invite audiences around the world to join in their anniversary celebration by making their musical history accessible worldwide.
Over its 125-year history, the Munich Philharmonic has defined the sound of German music and performance. It has benefitted from close associations with numerous composers, premiering works by Bruckner and Mahler among others, including Mahler’s Symphony no.8. It has worked with each generations’ greatest soloists and conductors and its most recent Music Directors include Rudolph Kempe, Sergiu Celibidache, James Levine, Christian Thielemann and Lorin Maazel. September 2015 saw the arrival of its new Music Director, Valery Gergiev, as well as a launch of a major media programme.
Although he has enjoyed close associations with orchestras and opera houses around the world including the LSO, Metropolitan Opera, Pacific Music Festival, Rotterdam Philharmonic and the Mariinsky Theatre, Gergiev has never previously held a permanent position with an orchestra in Germany. Since winning the Karajan Competition at the age of 24, conducting Beethoven, Gergiev has achieved worldwide fame, especially in Russian and French repertoire. But over the past 20-years, he has established a formidable reputation in German music, especially Mahler, Bruckner, Wagner and Strauss – music that is at the very heart of the Munich Philharmonic’s repertoire.
