Album Details: 2007 Issue of 22 CDs Filled with the Works of the Great Composer Drawn from the Vaults of Columbia Records.
Average Rating: 
Rating: -
This is really a-must-have. One of the most significant composers of 20th century, Igor Stravinsky and almostly complete works with his own performances. All the records between 1950-60's, except some chamber and solo piano music performed by composer and recorded monorual in 30's. All the records' sound quality are really great, like alive. The orchestras are: Columbia Symphony Orchestra (based on Holywood), CBC Symphony Orchestra (Canadian). There are many brilliant soloists such like Isaac Stern, ... Read More

I consider this release\compilation to be the greatest classical bargain of 2007-a year of many complete issues such as Bach and Mozart on Brilliant classics(before 07).
Stravinsky is the conductor for almost all the performances with the CBS orchestra and, though recorded in the early to late 60's, the sound is spectacular. I am listening to disc 1(for the tenth time) and still love the ambience of old tape recordings(which I find far superior to much of today's DDD and DSD. I will take warmth, ... Read More

This is a "staple" for anyone owning a stereo
and a CD player.
It's a learning experience .... a bit of an acquired
taste, a "foreign language" that one has to learn, when
we only know our own language. It's complex. It's sometimes
intellectual. It's moody. It's fascinating from a sound
point of view, instrumentation. It's fresh. It's real.

When Columbia (CBS) decided to record all the works of Stravinsky conducted by the composer, it became one of the most spoken about ventures during the 60s and 70s. I remember the vinyl box set and how I wished I had the extra money to acquire this set. Now Sony has remastered the sessions on CD. These are awesome performances of some of the greatest music written in the 20th Century.

Previously a full set of all of Stravinsky's work was well over $200 and since that version is out of print, it sells for far more now. Where can you get 22 CDs of music for around $30? I am thrilled with this set, although there is just one small booklet with very little material in it. A nice plus is that each CD jacket does have the selections listed on the back. It's a cheapo cardboard box and the CDs are in paper sleeves, but what can one expect for around $30? If you have always wanted a full ... Read More
