Sony Classical is proud to announce an unparalleled reissue of Pierre Monteux’s RCA Victor recordings. They are being issued together for the first time in a single original jacket collection of 40 CDs.
Each and every recording in this new 40-CD set comes from the best source, including previous Living Stereo, SACD and XRCD reissues. Many others have been newly re-mastered from the original 78-rpm matrices or tapes.
Most of Monteux’s now legendary recordings for RCA were made between 1941 and 1961 with the two US orchestras he served as music director: the Boston Symphony (1919-24) and San Francisco Symphony (1936-52).
Naturally they contain music he had introduced to the world decades earlier, for example Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring (recorded in Boston on 78s in 1945 and on LP in 1951) and Petrushka (recorded in Boston, 1959) as well as Ravel’s Valses nobles et sentimentales and Daphnis et Chloé.
His RCA French discography also contains multiple recordings of Debussy’s Images, La Mer and Nocturnes, Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique and works by Chausson and d’Indy. And then there is his peerless interpretation of the Franck Symphony in D Minor. Monteux recorded that symphony in San Francisco in 1941 and 1950, then once again with the Chicago Symphony in 1961. Those were his last RCA sessions, and the recording it yielded is still universally regarded as the work’s finest ever.

Link to part6 seems not working. Can you verify? Thanks in advance!
DeleteNow it is working well. Thanks!
DeleteDear Thang, cd 23 is having trouble playing, because of the cue file. Would you be so kind to check it out? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteDear Thang, Cd 15 has Brahms' second symphony, not the Rite of Spring. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteDear Friend! Could you please post it separately CD 01 and CD 15? Instead of them, there are CD 04 and CD 16. Many, many thanks!
ReplyDeleteOlá! Agradeço muito pela coleção. Mas os CDs 01 e 15 ainda repetem os CDs 04 e 16, respectivamente. Teria um link com esses dois CDs?
ReplyDeleteAs some noted above:
ReplyDeleteCD1 is a duplicate of CD4 (there is no true CD1 in the download)
CD15 is a duplicate of CD16 (there is no true CD15 in the download).
Any possibility to fix these?
Let's hope I'm the last one making this request: Could you please fix CDs 1, 15, and 23? CDs 1 and 15 are just duplicates of CDs 4 and 16, respectively, whereas CD 23 is unable to load the audio file in CUE Splitter, rendering it useless. They are the only "problem" items in this otherwise fantastic set.
ReplyDeleteThank you and walk blessed.
Could we please have uploads of CDs 1, 15, and 23 for reasons stated previously?

ReplyDeleteHay un torrent que estoy bajando que aparentemente tiene todo correcto, ape, cue y unas miniportadas de cada CD junto a unas imágenes del box.
