The Complete Decca Recordings: 40CD Box Set

40 discs showcasing Christoph von Dohnányi’s Cleveland years with Decca

Dohnányi’s relationship with Cleveland is one of the world’s foremost orchestra/conductor partnerships, a collaboration Decca has captured on many critically acclaimed recordings praised not only for the clarity of their interpretative vision, but by their standard-setting sonics

In addition to Mozart and major romantic works by Schumann, Mahler and Bruckner, the set offers insightful performances of 20th-century masters: Varèse, Ives, Schoenberg, and Lutoslawski, among them. Wagner’s Rheingold and Walküre fill out the set to provide a rounded portrait of the conductor’s Cleveland years

Includes original jackets, session photos and an insightful and detailed note by Andrew Stewart.
