His recordings of historically informed Beethoven’s complete symphonies with the later that opened his collaboration with EMI received unanimous critical acclaim. The success led to a busy and productive recording programme that covered music from Purcell and Handel to Wagner, Brahms and Bruckner, encompassing orchestral works, choral works and opera. A rich and varied collection of recordings released under EMI, Virgin and Warner Classics that illustrates the Guardian’s observation: “arguably the most important British conductor of the last half century … a man who has emphatically changed classical music for the better.” Sir Roger Norrington: The Complete Erato Recordings (45CD) brings together all the recordings that the British conductor Sir Roger Norrington (b.1934) made for EMI Classics, Virgin and Warner Classics Classics over the years from 1986 and 2004. These recordings marked out Norrington internationally as an important and pioneering presence in the field of historically informed performance, particularly in the music of Beethoven and composers of the Romantic era. He achieved prominence at a time when ‘authentic’ performance had been focused primarily on music of the Classical, Baroque and Renaissance eras, i.e. pre-Beethoven. Norrington’s impact was summed up in 1989 by the New York Times: “The English conductor Roger Norrington … has become about the hottest commodity in classical music … the most talked-about star of the early-music movement, which is devoted to the historical re-creation of the sounds and styles of performance akin to those the composer heard in his own lifetime. He has achieved this prominence partly through the widely recognized excellence of his interpretations, but also by his eager enthusiasm in pushing forward the chronological limits of the movement into familiar 19th-century Romantic repertory. Mr. Norrington isn’t playing ‘early music’ any more … but mainstream classical standards in a fresh and enlivening manner … No-one has been more admired in this repertory than Mr. Norrington, who has combined brisk tempos, dramatic accents, interpretive niceties and a lively responsiveness to period timbres into one vibrant package.” When, at the age of 87 in 2021, Norrington gave his last-ever concert, the Guardian described him as “arguably the most important British conductor of the last half century … a man who has emphatically changed classical music for the better.” Artist Sir Roger Norrington Genre Classical Label Warner Classics Buying Options CD Box Set Format Box Set , CD Condition New Country UK Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Classical View Product Quick View Berliner Philharmoniker / Simon Rattle Brahms: The Symphonies Classical | Warner Classics | 4LP Released 21st October 2022 £60.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Berliner Philharmoniker / Simon Rattle Brahms: The Symphonies £60.00 Genre: Classical Label: Warner Classics SKU: 0190296266966 Formats: 4LP Released Date: 21st October 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Jóhann Jóhannsson Englabörn & Variations Classical | Deutsche Grammophon | 180g, 2LP Released 23rd March 2018 £29.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jóhann Jóhannsson Englabörn & Variations £29.00 Genre: Classical Label: Deutsche Grammophon SKU: 4799842 Formats: 180g, 2LP Released Date: 23rd March 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Vienna Phil-Harmonic & Franz Welser-Most New Years Concert 2023 Classical | Sony Classical | 3LP Released 27th January 2023 £40.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Vienna Phil-Harmonic & Franz Welser-Most New Years Concert 2023 £40.00 Genre: Classical Label: Sony Classical SKU: 19658717441 Formats: 3LP Released Date: 27th January 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Trey Pollard Antiphone Classical | Spacebomb | 1LP Released 23rd November 2018 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Trey Pollard Antiphone £19.00 Genre: Classical Label: Spacebomb SKU: SB019 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 23rd November 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Nikolaus Harnoncourt Concentus musicus Wien Mozart: Requiem Classical | Warner Classics | 1LP Released 22nd October 2021 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Nikolaus Harnoncourt Concentus musicus Wien Mozart: Requiem £20.00 Genre: Classical Label: Warner Classics SKU: 0190296611346 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 22nd October 2021 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Neville Marriner The Academy in Concert Classical | Hi Q | 180g, 1LP Released 10th December 2013 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Neville Marriner The Academy in Concert £20.00 Genre: Classical Label: Hi Q SKU: HIQLP034 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 10th December 2013 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Mozart / Prokofiev / David Oistrakh Concerto No 3 / Concerto No 2 Classical | Testament | 180g, 1LP Released 8th July 2016 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Mozart / Prokofiev / David Oistrakh Concerto No 3 / Concerto No 2 £21.00 Genre: Classical Label: Testament SKU: SAX2304 Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 8th July 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Camille and Julie Berthollet Series Classical | Warner Classics | 1LP Released 9th September 2022 £24.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Camille and Julie Berthollet Series £24.00 Genre: Classical Label: Warner Classics SKU: 0190296441196 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 9th September 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View André Cluytens Ravel: Boléro, La Valse, Rapsodie espagnole Classical | Warner Classics | 1LP Released 23rd August 2019 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders André Cluytens Ravel: Boléro, La Valse, Rapsodie espagnole £19.00 Genre: Classical Label: Warner Classics SKU: 0190295459819 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 23rd August 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Petteri Iivonen J.S.
