Description:

[Classical Masters No. 9] A collection of definitive and long-selling recordings from Warner Classics (formerly EMI Classics). The analog recordings are the latest remastered recordings from analog masters at Abbey Road Studios and other overseas studios. The front cover uses the original overseas cover design. Commentary included. The music of Savarisch, who draws out soft and thick sounds from the famous orchestra, is exactly suited for Schumann. The crisp, clear, intelligent, and well-organized finish of the Second Symphony is to great effect here.
