Description:

A masterpiece of Klemperer's Brahms, known for his extremely structured and masterful performances, is now available in a boxed set with remastered recordings from 2023. Klemperer and Brahms have much in common, which may help explain the empathy between Klemperer and this great composer when conducting his works. As Richard Osborne states in the accompanying liner notes, "There was no unimportant thin part, but no one was allowed to subvert the larger whole." Although Klemperer's playing has been described at first glance as grandiose or even brawny, the tempi move really finely along with the music, and the changes are so integrated with the natural music that they are truly nerve-wracking and wonderfully convincing. All recordings in this box are from the latest sources, remastered from the original tapes for the complete Otto Klemperer cycle of 2023. No lyrics or bilingual translation is included.
