Product Description:
Claudio Abbado makes a welcome appearance in Collectors Edition at last, with his classic recording of the complete Mendelssohn Symphonies and selected Overtures - now made available at budget price for the first time. This set is regarded as the reference recording of Mendelssohn symphonies by many critics (including Gramophone magazine, for the "Italian" and "Scottish" Symphonies). The four-CD box is further enhanced by the inclusion of four overtures otherwise only available at high price and NOT available in the previous reduced price box set: Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage, the Ruy Blas Overture, the Trumpet Overture and the Overture for Wind Instruments.
