[Tower Records "Sony Classical" Special Selection 10th Season] For the past few years, "Tower Records "Sony Classical" Special Selection" has been reissuing many famous recordings of Eugene Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra every year. The Philadelphia Orchestra in his home country has also been reissued. The Philadelphia Orchestra has been praising this reissue, recognizing it as "an important project to revive their history in the present. The Philadelphia Orchestra has also recognized that this is "an important project to revive their history in the present. 10 titles have been reissued, including some recordings that have never been released in Japan or on CD before! In the period between the end of Ormandy's Columbia Records period and the re-transfer to RCA in the 1970s, Columbia released various compilation albums composed of past recordings, but "Hora Staccato," released in 1969, is a collection of recordings made in 1966 and 1967 that are now available on CD for the first time in the world. The "Hora Staccato" album, released in 1969, is a compilation of new recordings made in 1966 and 1967, and has never been released in Japan. The album focuses on the charm of the string section, which played a fundamental role in the "Ormandy sound," and its thick yet delicate expression can be said to be the result of Ormandy's training as a violinist. New coupling. Recordings: December 12, 1967 (1, 9, 10); December 7, 1966 (2, 5, 7, 8, 11); May 1 & 3, 1965 (3); February 14, 1966 (4); May 19, 1968 (6); December 20, 1967 (12), etc.
