Claudio Abbado - The Rca And Sony Album Collection

Abbado, Claudio

Claudio Abbado (1933-2014) As the endlessly sad news of Maestro Abbado’s passing broke on Monday 20th January 2014, heartfelt tributes quickly poured in from around the world. Sir Simon Rattle: “...a great musician and a generous man...” Gustavo Dudamel: “...will always be part of the exalted group of geniuses in the history of the arts...” Daniel Harding “one of the wonders of the world” Tom Service: “weren’t mere performances of pieces of music, they were transformative existential journeys”. Sony Classical releases a comprehensive homage to Abbado, acknowledged as one of the greatest of all conductors, by releasing a 39 CD boxset comprising his complete recordings for both RCA and CBS/Sony with the Berlin Philharmonic, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra as well as with the London Symphony Orchestra and featuring such stellar soloists as Murray Perahia, Martha Argerich, Midori, Cecile Licad and Lazar Berman.
