Product introduction

From the Abendroth command title of ALTUS

Packed with bras 1 and 9 that are sure to blow your mind.

A limited quantity set with great listening pleasure!

This is a limited quantity set that includes three titles from ALTUS conducted by Abendroth, housed in a three-sided craft-style case in their original packaging. Abendroth was known as a conductor who brought out explosive performances, and was a unique person who was highly respected by the orchestra members and loved by the local citizens. Please enjoy his unique world of music.

[TALT-022] Brahms' No. 1 is a miracle among miracles that only those in the know know. It's as if the law of inertia is completely ignored, and the tempo setting seems to blow you away!Especially in the final movement, it is faster than anyone expected, slower than anyone expected, and an astonishing command that pulls you back and forth. The orchestra latches on to the outpouring of musical expression, delivering a spectacular performance that will leave you sweating! It's extremely entertaining. Schumann also exploded with personality with his fiery performance.

[TALT-023] Abendroth's ''good stepping'' and sudden pressure on the sforzando and crescendo that frequently appear in the first movement of ''Eroica'' are unique to Abendroth. It is an incandescent performance that evokes the feeling that Beethoven, at the time of his composition, was resolutely entering a world of music on an unprecedented scale. During the high-speed scherzo, the trio's horns roar loudly! The air is punctured with unimaginable ferocity. The finale's coda is a melting pot of excitement. It's a fast-paced, fulfilling, and overwhelming performance that makes you imagine the orchestra playing happily.

[TALT-053] “Choral” is a famous performance highly praised by Kouyoshi Uno. The liner notes include Mr.'s explanation. He considers this 1950 New Year's Eve performance to be his best, and says that if Furtwängler is ''dramatic'', Abendroth is ''a rampage'' and ''a ''Choral'' that doesn't care what it is.'' The boldness, the fluid tempo, the sometimes brutal frighteningness, and the extremely slow third movement!The flood of songs overflowing is no different from Walter's. He says that the fourth movement explodes with a period style, and that the chorus is also a rare example of the pre-war German singing style still remaining. Enjoy the powerful Beethoven.
