Leonard Bernstein bestrode the musical scene in the second half
of the 20th century like few others. For the last decade of his
life he recorded exclusively for Deutsche Grammophon, having also
made several s for the label in the 1970s, starting with
his celebrated Carmen in 1973.
Bernstein's complete s for the label are now offered on
two deluxe box sets, presented in their original sleeves, with a
40-page LP-size booklet, with new essays by Bernstein biographers
Humphrey Burton and Nigel Simeone and a specially-written
foreword by Bernstein's daughter Jamie Bernstein.
VOLUME ONE comprises Bernstein's complete s of composers
from Beethoven to Liszt, and includes all of Bernstein's
s of his own works, those of Brahms and Haydn, and
individual CDs of Bruckner, Debussy, Dvorak, Elgar, Franck,
Hindemith and many American composers.
