PABLO CASALS: THE ORIGINAL JACKET COLLECTION is a stellar set of 10 of Casals original Columbia LP recordings on 10 CDs, each in a Mini-LP Cover from the original LP. One of the frustrating things about the online description is that there has been no listing of which albums are included. Here is a listing of the original Columbia LP numbers, titles and composers:
COLUMBIA ML 4349 PRADES FESTIVAL 1950 - BACH
COLUMBIA ML 4350 PRADES FESTIVAL 1950 - BACH
COLUMBIA ML 4560 PERPIGNAN FESTIVAL 1951 - BEETHOVEN

COLUMBIA KL 5726 A CONCERT AT THE WHITE HOUSE - 1961 - MENDELSSOHN, COUPERIN, SCHUMANN, TRAD. ARRANGED BY CASALS
The playing and the sound throughout is masterful. Casals is featured in duos and trios, with the exception of ML 4926 where he is featured with the Prades Festival Orchestra and the Perpignan Festival Orchestra.

10 legendary recordings of Pablo Casal in a beautiful collection. Each album of the Original Jacket Collection is a visual reproduction of the artwork of the original LP sleeve. Also the coupling of the music pieces is exactly like on the originals. This gives you the opportunity to relive the fascination of the legendary recording of yesteryear. Out of print.
