Various Artists - Ultimate Recordings - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

When the ORFEO tag was established in Munich forty years ago, surely no one with the music scene back then would have predicted that the record company would develop into a firmly established player on the classical music market. One of the tag's main priorities in the early years was vocal music, with opera rarities top of the list and since the mid 1980s the re-use of historic tape recordings. Big names featured on the tag's own productions, while ORFEO also developed into a talent factory by discovering and nurturing young artist. This InchORFEO 40th AnniversaryInch 2-album sampler well reflects these two sides of the tag by combining highlight tracks of historical recordings with today's global stars. Album Tracks 1.
