Description:

[Classical Masters No. 8] 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 made by Abbey Road Studios and other overseas studios. The front cover uses the original overseas cover design. Commentary included. The "No. 2" is a first-rate performance by Klemperer, with a seemingly rugged but fully realized performance. The two overtures are as solidly constructed as the symphony, with a solid and responsive content.
