19 x LP 180gm True Stereo Boxset. The Most Coveted Performance Of Wagner's Legendary Epic Ring Cycle Was In Fact Recorded By Decca In Stereo Live At The 1955 Bayreuth Festival. But Until Now, That Lost Performance Has Remained But A Memory. Thrillingly Conducted By Joseph Keilberth (Called By Astrid Varnay, "A Conductor With So Much Love, Who Was Always There For You"), The Cycle Provides The Opportunity To Hear Complete For The First Time On Commercial Release The Definitive Performances Of Hans Hotter, Astrid Varnay, Ramon Vinay, Josef Greindl And Paul Kuen, In Addition To The Much-Loved Siegfried Of Wolfgang Windgassen, Here Heard In His Prime. These Live Bayreuth Performances Were Taped By A Decca Team Led By Peter Andry And Including The Noted Engineers Kenneth Wilkinson And Roy Wallace, With Gordon Parry As Assistant. Decca's Recording Vividly Captures In Wonderful Stereo Sound The Unique Acoustic And Stage/Pit Balance Of The Bayreuth Festival Theatre With Its Sunken Orchestra, In Addition To Preserving The Leading Singers From A Wagnerian Golden Age In Live Performance.
Rare 2006 EU pressing 19 x LP boxset - beautiful condition and rarely comes up for sale anymore on EBay. Each set inside the box contains a lush booklet and all records are pressed on 180g vinyl and packed into poly lined inner sleeves.
Condition:
Stored since original purchase at time of release in 2006 in a clean dry house by collector. All vinyl in near mint condition - one play if at all. The very sturdy outer box has some minor marks - we’ve tried to capture them in the photos. All booklets and inner sleeves, inner boxes are in excellent condition.
Shipping:
Worldwide shipping. However, as you can imagine this is a rather heavy boxset! Therefore shipping outside of UK will be calculated on a bespoke basis to your exact location. The boxset will be very carefully packaged to ensure no damage is caused during shipping.
