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. Klemperer's huge and massive sound remains unchanged in the "No. 4," which is sometimes described as "flowing" and "delicate," and seems to reveal an unexpected aspect of this symphony. The overture to the "Dedication Ceremony" also shows Klemperer's character.
