About
Included on disc for the first time are broadcast recordings and rare treasures from the shellac era.
Presenting an abundance of new, state of the art remasterings (apart from discs 13 & 14) reflecting the orchestra’s Viennese Classical repertory, the symphonies of high and late Romanticism from Schubert to Brahms, Bruckner and Mahler, with the dawn of modernism represented by works by Richard Strauss, Reger and Schoenberg as well as by Paul Dessau, while the Staatskapelle’s operatic repertoire is represented largely by Wagner.
Each CD is devoted to a single conductor who has left their mark on the Staatskapelle’s playing.
A ‘bonus’ disc documents some of the distinguished resident and guest conductors from the shellac era.
