Synopsis

Album Description

THE EMI CLASSICS CATALOGUE OF RECORDINGS INCLUDES many unique treasures by most of the great musicians of the 20th century, but few are greater than those made for the Company by Sir John Barbirolli. This 10-CD set is being released to commemorate the 40th anniversary of his death on 29 July 1970. The set not only includes some of the truly incomparable interpretations he made for EMI but also some he made during the period he was with Pye. Many of these are with his beloved Hallé Orchestra, the orchestra with which he became most closely associated during the last 30 years of his life.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"It was 40 years ago that the great John Barbirolli passed away (I can't believe it was that long). Lucky us that this 10 CD set has just been released in commemoration. His cello concerto with Jackeline DuPre is still insanely good, even 50 years later. This is a tremendous package for any fan of Sir John, and is really a must have."
