  • Description

    Among the numerous Albums of Wagner's symphonic pieces (Overtures and Preludes) available on the market, the interpretations offered by Hans Knappertsbusch, despite the passing of the years, still defies the time. Unfortunately Knappertsbusch did not record his Wagnerian repertoire for a single label: in this way many of his important records, over time, were lost or became difficult to find. With this box we offer the best of his recordings taken from the Decca and Westminster archives, plus the great interpretations for the Hamburg NDR, all with a perfect sound, in most cases stereophonic. In any case, it is the largest and most significant Wagnerian anthology, sought after by collectors and worthy of always being present on the market as an irreplaceable historical Wagnerian lesson.
