Description

Otto Klemperer conducts the Philharmonia Orchestra in this classic recording of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.

This is UK Columbia stereo SAX 2276-77, in the first-pressing grooved blue silver labels, by HMV/EMI from its golden age. The powerful and detailed stereo sound is silvery, vivid and natural.

This was auditioned with a Goldring 1042 cartridge, and Sennheiser 600 headphones/Epos ES-25 speakers. The two thick, shiny records look nearly perfect. They play superbly--thus call them about a NM.

The jackets are of the thin early, flipback, scalloped "floppy" type, which I've never encountered before with SAX 2276-77 (the scallops don't show up in my scan, but they're there). These jackets are clean, bright and intact with no splits and light wear, but with considerable front fading and clarifoil bubbling typical of these early sleeves. They're very nice, but faded on the front: a VG for both?

I've added Nagaoka inner sleeves to the originals, and then plain white cardboard jackets to support them. I then slipped everything into two new Japanese mylar resealable outer sleeves.
