1956 Mozart Jubilee Edition Vol.1 (Symphonies, Piano Concertos, Chamber Music)

Now, in 2006, we are celebrating Mozart's 250th anniversary with an extended version of the original edition: There are two box sets, each containing three double digi-packs - more than twice the size and length of the 1956 release (limited edition). Each digi-pack is also available separately.
On this release Volume 1:

There is a double CD brings together Ferenc Fricsay's complete repertoire of Mozart orchestral works, in fresh and lively recordings - several first-time international releases on CD (477 5807).

There is also an entire set devoted to the piano concerto, featuring an exceptional team of mainly female soloists (Clara Haskil, Monique Haas, Margrit Weber, and Annie Fischer - the odd-man-out, as it were, is Mieczyslaw Horszowski). Except for the Haskil, all of these recordings are appearing for the first time on CD (477 5808).

A purely chamber music set offers rare recordings by the Amadeus and Lowenguth Quartets (both quartets and quintets), as well as by Bruno Hoffmann on glass harmonica, the wonderfully ethereal instrument originally specified for the Adagio and Rondo, one of Mozart's last works - all completely new to CD (477 5809).
