A collection of Klemperer's supreme Mahler recordings in 6 discs. Completely new, mastered from British original analog master tapes. Reproducing one of the great master's greatest legacies with high sound quality! New commentary included

All six Mahler recordings, including songs that Klemperer left in stereo on the old EMI label, are supreme performances that hold a special place among all Mahler recordings, along with Walter. Unlike Walter's emotional expressions, Klemperer's Mahler works are treated as extremely objective symphonic works, and their true value is demonstrated through high-quality sound. A masterpiece that can be said to be one of the greatest legacies will be revived. Aiming for the highest sound quality under the current conditions, we have newly mastered the SACD layer and CD layer separately using masters digitized at 96kHz/24bit (songs only 192kHz/24bit) from the original analog master tapes in the UK. I did it. With new explanation. This is a permanent preservation record. Limited to 1,500 sets with serial number.

Until now, Klemperer has released a total of 5 pieces in this series at irregular intervals. This is the second major reprint of Mozart's symphonies. Moreover, this time it is Mahler, which can be said to be the best of the Klemperer recordings on the old EMI label. As you know, Klemperer was actually in contact with Mahler's conducting, and was present at several of his premieres. Among the famous conductors, along with Walter, he has gained tremendous support from listeners as a conductor who inherited Mahler's direct teachings. However, his style is the exact opposite of Walter's, and it is very interesting that Klemperer's unique interpretation comes to the fore. This six-disc set includes all of Mahler's works that Klemperer made session recordings on the old EMI label, and there are also many live recordings, but the thoughts and interpretations of each work are significantly different from those of later conductors. It is clear that there is a point. This time, for the latest reprint, we have performed high-quality digitization from the new home country's original analog master tape. Hi-res sound sources including SACD have existed on the market, but the master has been kept in good condition, and we believe that it was mastered in a very traditional manner. Regardless of the year in which each song was recorded, there are some differences in condition, but the second song in particular is of a high quality that is comparable to current recordings, and it fully demonstrates its true value, including the texture. think. With a better view of each instrument, the tone and position of each instrument, especially the Klemperer, is recorded in a facing position, so you can enjoy Mahler even more audio-wise. Unlike Walter's emotional expressions, Klemperer's Mahler works are treated as extremely objective symphonic works, and their true value is demonstrated through high-quality sound.
