Limited Edition. Anthony Collins' 1952-55 Sibelius cycle with the LSO for Decca has acquired something of a cult status over the decades. It was the first collection of Sibelius' complete symphonies, performed by one orchestra & conductor. 150 years after the birth of Jean Sibelius and 60 years after the completion of this pioneering project, Decca proudly presents these recordings in a 6LP set for the very first time.

All the vinyl records possess Decca's characteristics and heritage. The discs are well-made and very good sound. It's not easy to find Sibelius' symphonies in an album. Ref. DG 2736003 (Herbert von Karajan) Jean Sibelius' symphonies 1,2,3,4,5&7(Finlandia).
Die berühmte Einspielung aus den frühen Fünfzigern in einer vorbildlichen Wiederveröffentlichung. Formidables, aufwendiges Booklet, sorgfältige Pressung. So wünschen sich Vinylliebhaber Reissues. Leider ist dies eher Ausnahme als Standard.
It took me many years to find all the original lp's from car boot sales and charity shops ect, now I get to replace them all with mint vinyl. These are the performances I prefer to all the available ones I have heard. This set has doubled in price since I bought my copy time for you to buy yours before theyre all gone! Stellar set!
Splendido cofanetto della storica integrale delle sinfonie di Sibelius dirette da A. Collins. Sono 6 LP mono (serie LXT) ristampati molto bene, che non presentano rumori di fondo. Si tratta, di una delle prime integrali a opera di un solo direttore (pressoché contemporanea a quella di Sixten Ehrling). Interpretazione da riscoprire.
