Andre Previn / London Symphony Orchestra - Prokofiev: Symphony No.1 'Classical'. No.7 - Japan CD

Description:

[Classical Masters No. 10] A collection of definitive and long-selling recordings from Warner Classics (formerly EMI Classics). The analog recordings are the latest remastered recordings from analog masters made by Abbey Road Studios and other overseas studios. The front cover uses the original overseas cover design. Commentary included. This is a masterful performance recorded at a time when the Previn/London Symphony Orchestra duo was at its best. The sharpness of the fast movement with its sparks and Prokofiev's unique irony. The music is a vibrant expression of the orchestra's solid sympathy for Russian music.
