EMI Great Recordings of the Century series

‘A distinguished series of beautifully presented reissues.’ (Gramophone)

Great Recordings of the Century

The EMI Classics flagship mid-price series of reissues Great Recordings of the Century has proved exceptionally successful since its launch in 1998.

It has achieved sales of over five-and-a-quarter million units.

A crucial element in maintaining the high standards achieved in Great Recordings of the Century is the work of EMI’s renowned team of engineers at Abbey Road Studios. Using the very latest technology, they make new transfers from the original materials (78s and analogue tape) and new remasterings (of both analogue and digital recordings).
