Returning to the catalogue, at budget price for the first time, is the delicious recording by Marriner and the Academy of Scandinavian works. The Holberg Suite was recorded in 1970, whereas the rest of the program was taped seven years later. All of the recordings were made in the stunning Kingsway Hall acoustic.

“This programme of Scandinavian pieces, slight though the items may be, is all popular in the most attractive way; and shows the particular qualities of both Sir Neville and his Academy at their best - the playing always alert, yet with feeling in the more deeply expressed pieces like Grieg's Elegiac Melodies ... The sound of the CD is absolutely first rate and the disc is highly recommended ... Playing and recording, in fact, could hardly be better” Gramophone Magazine

March 2011: 50th anniversary of the first recording by Neville Marriner and The Academy of St Martin in the Fields for Decca's L'Oiseau-Lyre label [Concerti grossi by Handel, Torelli, Albicastro and Locatelli]

March 1964: first recording by Marriner and The Academy on ARGO [Handel: Concerti grossi, op.3] - the start of a very remarkable recording partnership that extended to other labels [most notably PHILIPS]

Over a period of 40 years Marriner and The Academy made over 300 recordings but it is the association with DECCA / ARGO that was so unique and resulted in a huge catalogue of recordings of Baroque and Classical repertory - many of which remain in the catalogue today.

Between 1967-77 a distinguished series of recordings of late 19th- and 20th-century repertory established themselves as classics of the gramophone. This 50th anniversary edition presents a selection of these albums in repertory that ranges from Wagner to Stravinsky, Bartók and Shostakovich.

Each CD is presented in a sleeve with a replica of the original LP cover.
