As a young man though, he was at the vanguard of much of the new music of the 20th century, and was friends with Mahler (assisting at the premiere of Mahler’s 8th Symphony) and championed works by Janacek, Schoenberg, Stravinsky and Hindemith, as well as being a composer himself. Arguably his greatest legacy is the raft of superb recordings he made for EMI from 1954 until 1971, with his interpretations of Beethoven and Brahms symphonies particularly celebrated. • Recorded on 12 – 13 October 1968 at Number 1 Studio, Abbey Road, London. Produced by the legendary Suvi Raj Grub and Engineered by Martin Benge. • Cut at Abbey Road Studios from the original stereo analogue master tapes with the Neumann VMS82 lathe fed an analogue pre-cut signal from a specially adapted Studer A80 tape deck with additional ‘advance’ playback head, making the cut a totally analogue process. Pressed on 180g vinyl to audiophile standards Featuring the original album artwork In the original 1972 review in the GRAMOPHONE TH wrote: “The main object of this new recording, I imagine, is to give us [Klemperer’s] commanding version of this symphony in a really up to date recording and in this HMV’s engineers have been highly successful. The remastered version of his older recording still sounds very well but one has only to compare a few bars to be convinced of the greater superiority of this new edition. It has a more immediate presence which increases the impact of this magisterial reading of the score, while the extremely well defined string bass draws attention to important points one might otherwise overlook; as for example, the place in the slow movement where the accompaniment to the main tune changes from quavers into triplets… As most readers will know by now, you must take Klemperer’s Beethoven on his own terms: and his own terms are both impressive, and what is more important, often extraordinarily revealing.” Artist Beethoven/Otto Klemperer/NPO Genre Classical Label Hi Q Buying Options 180g 1LP Format 180g , 1LP Condition New Country United Kingdom Track Listings Side One Beethoven: Symphony No.7 in A Op.92 1.
