Description

Rudolf Kempe's complete Strauss orchestral cycle with the Staatskapelle Dresden is widely regarded by specialists as one of the finest ever committed to disc — idiomatic, authoritative, and deeply expressive. The Dresden orchestra's native Strauss tradition, rooted in the composer's own era, lends these performances an authenticity few rivals can match. A cornerstone acquisition for any serious Strauss collector.

This is a used CD. The disc and case have been inspected and are in good condition. Broken or damaged jewel cases will be replaced before dispatch.
