Herbert Barrett (May 21, 1910 – November 5, 2007) was an influential talent manager and publicist in the classical music world during the second half of the twentieth century. In 1940 he founded Herbert Barrett Management, serving as the firm's president until 1996. He remained a chairman at the firm up until his death eleven years later. During his career he managed the careers of hundreds of artists, including Sherill Milnes, Jennie Tourel, Eileen Farrell, Shirley Verrett, John Browning, Joseph Szigeti and Ralph Kilpatrick.
Perhaps the finest overview of this legendary violinist, featuring some of his greatest concerto, chamber and solo recordings.
LPs are in near mint condition, one LP enclosure with penned writing as shown, slipcase with single corner break as shown and with minor toning on reverse, 8-page booklet in extremely fine condition.
A very nice copy of this LP collection, together with an interesting related historical document.
