Bamberg Symphony - The First 70 Years

• 948665-Product-0-I.jpg

For 70 years, the Bamberg Symphony has been held in high regard as one of the leading German orchestras. In celebration of their 70th birthday, Deutsche Grammophon is proud to present a comprehensive set that for the first time depicts the orchestra's great cultural heritage in all its scope and glory!

Apart from our DG's repertoire, this set contains material licensed not only from various radio stations, but also from numerous Classical labels that the Bamberg Symphony has worked with over the decades  (among them Warner, Sony, Tudor and Orfeo).

Highlights include some rare historical recordings going back as far as 1940 (when the Bamberg Symphony was still the "Deutsches Philharmonisches Orchester Prag"). With definitive recordings by all the famous conductors who shaped the orchestra's unique "bohemian" style, this box set paints a complete picture of one of the greatest German orchestras.
