Karajan Complete EMI Recordings 1946-1984 Vol. 1 Orchestral (88 CD Box Set) Rare

Description: To celebrate what would have been Herbert von Karajans 100th birthday on April 5, 2008, EMI has gathered together all of the conductors recordings for the label in two boxed sets. Volume 1 weighs in at an imposing 88 discs and focuses on orchestral repertoire (the second volume consists of vocal and operatic works). The first nine discs encompass Karajans EMI Vienna Philharmonic sessions. Discs 10 through 46 survey Karajans prolific Philharmonia Orchestra years, while the Berlin Philharmonic dominates discs 47 through 87, together with the handful of recordings Karajan made with the Orchestre de Paris. EMI organizes these subgroups in loose alphabetical order by composer, excepting fillers and sundry collections devoted to showpieces, overtures, light music, and the like. Lastly, Disc 88 offers Karajan Remembered, a documentary bordering on infomercial, replete with narration, talking heads, and musical examples. All the discs have been individually checked and are in very good condition. The strip of glue along the cardboard sleeve has dried out and come undine.
