On the eve of his centenary in 2018, Sony Classical is proud to announce the most important collection yet released of Leonard Bernstein s classic American Columbia recordings, newly remastered from their original 2- and 3-track analogue tapes. This is unquestionably the most comprehensive display of the legendary American conductor s unparalleled dynamism and versatility ever offered in a single package. Many of Bernstein s most memorable and critically acclaimed interpretations are brought together here for the first time. This has allowed for the creation of a natural balance (for example, between the orchestra and solo instruments) that brings the quality of these half-century-old recordings, excellent for their time, up to the discriminating standards of today s audiophiles. In addition, there has been a meticulous restoration of some earlier masterings in which LP surface noise was too rigorously eliminated at the expense of the original brilliance. In every case, the masterings in this new collection represent the best ever issued of these matchless recordings by one of the greatest musicians of the last century. Space permits only the mention of highlights, but they will give you a sense of the breadth and depth of this astonishing new set. There are his two classic complete opera recordings with the Vienna Philharmonic: Verdi s Falstaff (1966) starring Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau and Strauss s Rosenkavalier (1971) with Christa Ludwig, Gwyneth Jones, Lucia Popp and Walter Berry. And his incandescent complete 1966 Haydn Creation from New York. Bernstein s New York Philharmonic recordings that launched the Mahler Renaissance in the 1960s are here, of course, including the 1961 Third Symphony which has arguably never been surpassed. Ditto for Carl Nielsen, whose great works Bernstein brought to a wide new public with interpretations like the 1962 NYP recording of the Fifth Symphony, perhaps the most thrilling account of this 20th-century masterpiece ever committed to disc. The Sibelius Fifth recording from 1961 is another celebrated Bernstein reading. And while we re talking about Fifth Symphonies, Bernstein s Beethoven Fifth from 1961 is still as electrifying now as it was then. His talk about the work is also included, one of many treasurable spoken-word commentaries in this set delivered by one of classical music s most charismatic and influential lecturers and teachers.

Monteverdi s seminal first opera L Orfeo, tells the dramatic story from Ovid s Metamorphoses of the descent of Orfeo (Georg Nigl) into the underworld to recover his beloved wife Euridice (Roberta Invernizzi), seen here in a production for La Scala, based on a painting by Titian and directed by Robert Wilson. David Alden s visually sumptuous production of L incoronazione di Poppea, with its suggestions of a giant game of chess, puts the opera s potent blend of sex and politics in a context that sets ancient against modern just as the action juxtaposes scurrilous comedy and stark drama. Both are filmed in High Definition and recorded in true surround sound.

"Robert Wilson meets Monteverdi with successful results." (The Opera Critic)

"Beautifully flimed in Milan, this DVD shows how well Wilson's minimalist productions can take to the small screen." (Gramophone)

"The drama comes from Alessandrini's edition and the bite and brilliance of the La Scala orchestra, and Concerto Italiano's inventive continuo section" (International Record Review)

"Persson is a superb Poppea who can really act with her voice" (BBC Music Magazine)

"The whole is acutely paced and supported by Harry Bicket's orchestra...The hand-picked European cast is in fine fettle, Connolly's Nero outstanding." (Gramophone)

"It is difficult to imagine a more credible and convincing Poppea than the Swedish soprano Miah Persson. Her beauty, outstanding figure, her acting abilities and her beautiful voice, together with her great expressiveness, make her the Poppea of one s dreams." (Musicweb International)

Decca celebrates one of the world’s most prolific conductor-orchestra partnerships with a deluxe 108-CD box set marking both the 20th Anniversary of the passing of Sir Georg Solti and the 125th Anniversary of the founding of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. 108 CDs presenting Solti’s and the CSO’s complete recorded legacy together: from their very first recording at Medinah Temple in March 1970 of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony to their last at Orchestra Hall, Chicago in March 1997 of Shostakovich’ Symphony No.15.

“[Chicago was] the happiest time of my professional life.” Sir Georg Solti

• 108 CDs chronologically presenting Solti’s and the CSO’s complete recorded legacy together

• Luxury 180-page hardback book in English and German, with dipped edges

• An original-jacket collection, with silver-foiled design and newly commissioned artwork on outer packaging reflected on the book cover and inner trays

• Foreword by Lady Solti

• Retrospectives by Yvonne Minton (mezzo-soprano), Humphrey Burton (broadcaster and author), Frank Villella (CSO Archivist) and Martha Gilmer (VP of Artistic Planning for CSO during Solti’s tenure)

• Excerpt from “Chicago” from Solti’s Memoirs “Solti on Solti”

• Many previously unpublished photographs from the recording sessions, orchestra archives plus facsimiles of Solti’s original scores

• Includes every one of their 24 Grammy Award-winning recordings

• Works indexed by composers for ease of reference

Solti covered a repertoire of a breadth that few rivals can begin to match and none outshine, whether Handel's Messiah and Haydn's Creation, Berlioz's Damnation of Faust and Liszt's Faust Symphony, or masterpieces of the twentieth century like Schoenberg's Moses und Aron.

Solti often tackled works new to him, and with the CSO championed contemporary composers and premiered, among others, Martinů’s Concerto for Violin No. 1, Del Tredici’s Final Alice, Tippett’s Symphony No.4 and Byzantium, and Lutosławski’s Symphony No. 3. When he re-recorded repertoire, he was conscious that each interpretation represented his view at that particular period of his life, and always chose to radically rethink his interpretations.

Solti and the CSO built up a vast corpus of recorded repertory which stands as an extraordinary testament to their perfect musical marriage together. Solti's readings and the CSO’s performances will be consulted by conductors and music-lovers for generations to come.

About the Artist

Sir Georg Solti was one of the twentieth century’s most brilliant conductors and a leading figure of musical culture in Europe and the US. He studied piano, composition and conducting with Bartók, Dohnányi, Kodály and Weiner, made his concert debut as a pianist, and in 1937, Toscanini selected him as his assistant at the Salzburg Festival. He made his first recordings for Decca in 1947 and continued as an exclusive Decca artist for over half a century leaving a vast legacy of over 250 great recordings – including 45 complete operas. Solti’s remarkable partnership with the CSO began in 1954, when Solti first led the Orchestra at the Ravinia Festival. He returned to Chicago for guest engagements with the Lyric Opera in 1956, made his Chicago Orchestra Hall debut on December 9, 1965, and his first concerts as Music Director were in September 1969. Solti served as Music Director for 22 years (1969-1991) and Music Director Laureate for a further 7 years until his passing (1991-1997) and is credited with greatly extending and building the Orchestra's reputation worldwide – starting in 1971 with its first foreign tour. Solti’s recordings garnered many international honors including 33 Grammy® awards (24 which were made with the CSO) – more than ANY other recording artist to this day – including a Lifetime Achievement Award and a Trustees Award. Highlights include: Wagner’s Die Meistersinger, the complete Beethoven Symphony Cycle, Mahler’s Symphonies 2, 7, 8 & 9, the Bach Mass in B minor, and Berlioz’ La Damnation de Faust.
