The Wilhelm Furtwängler Centre of Japan is releasing a 3-CD set based on Brahms's Symphony No. 1.
– from the Salzburg and Lucerne concerts of 1947,
– the Finale, recorded in 1940 (and not in January 1945 as is often stated)
– To this must be added an excerpt from the Violin Concerto (Salzburg, 1947) and, by Beethoven, Piano Concerto No. 1 (Aeshbacher) and Leonore III (Lucerne, 1947).
The boxed set is priced at €37, excluding shipping costs (included for shipping within Japan). For high-definition files, an additional €11.40 will be charged.
