and rehearsal footage of excerpts from Die Zauberflote Overture and the final movement of Beethoven Symphony No. 9, introduced by Marcia Davenport
This double album is one of the most interesting releases of the great Arturo Toscanini, for it comprises two CDs. The first is devoted to pre-Beethoven 18th-century and early 19th-century music by JS Bach, Vivaldi and Rossini - composers but rarely encountered in Toscanini's repertoire and discography, played by 'his' NBC Symphony Orchestra, performances that will come as a welcome surprise to many music-lovers and Toscanini admirers. The second CD is even rarer: excerpts from fascinating rehearsals by the great man in outstanding examples from his core repertoire - Mozart (Overture to The Magic Flute), Beethoven (the Ninth Symphony) and Verdi (La Traviata). The rehearsal excerpts are introduced by Marcia Davenport (daughter of the great Alma Gluck, who sang with the maestro). All in all, this is a unique and immensely valuable release. Due to a technical error the tracks on the inlay and in the booklet are incorrect. It should be: Track 5 - 7 Gioachino Rossini (1792-1868) and Track 8 - 10 Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741) | | | Usually despatched in 8 - 10 working days. |

Alexander Weimann (harpsichord) Orchestre Symphonique de Québec, Yoav Talmi The first ATMA recording by l’Orchestre symphonique de Québec (Quebec City Symphony Orchestra) of transcriptions of music by Debussy was a huge success and now ATMA present transcriptions of music by J S Bach. Conductor Yoav Talmi has not necessarily chosen the transcriptions you might expect. Of course we have Stokowski’s Toccata & Fugue in D minor but there are also transcriptions by William Walton, Edward Elgar, Gustav Holst, and even Anton Webern and Ottorino Respighi. | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
