This new batch of budget-priced sets contains major recording projects by some of the 20th century's most celebrated musicians. Two boxes in this new batch of Original Masters feature Eugene Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra.

An early review in High Fidelity best summed up their powerful appeal in Strauss's music InchThere is no doubt that, for sheer gorgeousness, the Philadelphians have no peers.Inch More recent assessments in the Penguin Guide reaffirm that verdict InchVirtuoso orchestral playing... and many felicities of characterizationInch [Also sprach Zarathustra]; InchMarvelous orchestral playing and the two soloists play splendidly with plenty of characterInch [Don Quixote]; InchAn extraordinarily voluptuous Philadelphia performance... Ormandy directs with licentious abandon, and the orchestra responds with tremendous virtuosity and ardorInch [Salome's Dance]; InchOrmandy's Ein Heldenleben is an engulfing performance, and the composite richness of tone and the fervor of the playing... bring the highest possible level of orchestral tension.Inch Album Tracks 1.

David Zinman, one of today's most versatile and enterprising conductors, renowned for his interpretations of Beethoven and the music of his American compatriots, has recorded the major works of Richard Strauss with his venerable Swiss orchestra. These excellent performances are reissued here in a single box. ClassicsToday InchThere's much to savor over the course of these seven discs... Zinman's clear-headed, intelligent interpretations are well worth getting to know.Inch MusicWeb International InchZinman has the measure of the scope and scaleInch of Strauss's music. InchThroughout the project there is no question that the Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra play particularly well, while the Arte Nova engineers have produced an atmospheric acoustic and a suitably opulent sound quality... Undoubtedly a major collection.Inch

Never have I really believed in inspiration by the beauty of nature; I was put right by the ruins of Rome. There my ideas just flew to me. (Richard Strauss) InchAus ItalienInch was the first major symphonic poem mirroring diverse moods to be composed by Richard Strauss and that was to be followed by later masterpieces such as Don Juan, Tod und Verklarung, Ein Heldenleben or Eine Alpensinfonie. The Venetian Suite was written in 1935 by then almost 60-year-old Ermanno Wolf-Ferrari. It is the music of an opera composer, accustomed to illustrating events with his music, and yet in his concert works handing over many things to the imagination of the listeners, not wanting to give all the answers in advance. Ariane Matiakh is a promising conductor leading the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin on this recording. The ensemble with Matiakh at the helm has been featured in several other Capriccio productions that have been acclaimed by the press. Album Tracks 1. Aus Italien, Op. 16 TRV 147 (1886) 2. Suite Veneziana (1935)
