Description
Berkioz: Symphonie fantastique, Op 14a- Pierre Monteux conducting
the Paris Symphony Orchestra. First U.S. edition red cloth buckram album
set. Six 12" early 30s Victrola scroll label discs. Extremely clean copy of first
U.S. pressing: (6-12" first edition Victrola scroll discs 11093/98. Absolutely hair-raising
from first note to last. No orchestras, save the French, have those menacing, snarling winds
that create such an eerie presence in the Witches' Sabbath finale. Absolutely magnificent
performance from the conductor who premiered Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. Another
path breaking score.Mint Condition Notes
