[ Deutsche Grammophon / 12 CD Box Set ]
Release Date: Thursday 21 June 2012
A stunning set: Lang Lang's complete recordings, on Deutsche Grammophon (9 CDs) and on Telarc (2 CDs), with the longest Bonus CD (82:49) you've ever heard. Plus the 200-page book, with new articles, original liner notes and photos galore of this uniquely charismatic artist.
THE PACKAGING: The box captures the "feel" of Lang Lang in bold bright colours and evocative photos. Open up and you see 11 colour-coded digipaks, one for each of the CD sets (Carnegie Hall Recital in a double digi). Each digi slots into a space in the neat tray in the bespoke box, which cunningly conceals the book in an elegant drawer.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW: The 12 CDs represent Lang Lang's complete recordings from 2000 to 2009, including the two Telarc CDs he made in 2000 and 2001 (his recording debuts).
There are 5 concerto CDs, 4 solo piano CDs, 1 chamber music CD and 2 "mixed" CDs. The set is arranged by label: DG first, then Telarc, with the bonus CD at the end.
NOTE: Because of the sheer size of this set please note that an extra courier charge will apply.
