## Description

Following the success of Audite&apos;s acclaimed 13-CD Furtwangler box set, the prestigious label now presents a selection of recordings in LP format for audiophile vinyl enthusiasts. Containing works by Beethoven, Bruckner, Schubert, Brahms and Wagner, the LP boxed set (comprising 14 LPs on 180g virgin vinyl) presents the principal works of the CD boxed set. The majority of the concerts given by Wilhelm Furtwangler and the Berlin Philharmonic between 1947 and 1954 were recorded by the RIAS Berlin. The original tapes from the RIAS archives have been made available for the first time for this edition so these recordings also offer unsurpassed technical quality.

    Furtwangler as you should know him
  

*by P***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2020*

I cannot recommend this release enough.  Furtwangler, live, in relatively decent sound: what more could you ask?  First, the sound.  The remastering, in the attempt capture and convey every last bit of sound in the original tapes, can initially come off as overly shrill. I suspect that this can be remedied by the judicious use of an equalizer; as it was I quickly grew used to the sound and simply reveled in the performances.  And what performances! I hear a clear difference between Furtwangler live and in the recording studio: both are amazing, but I sense a greater sense of interpretive freedom and risk-taking in his live performances that I find very attractive.  Equally of interest to those who have heard his wartime recordings is that these post-war recordings have a greater feeling of lightness and inner peace than their predecessors, which often seem far more driven (at least to my ears).  There are duplications (Beethoven 3, 5 & 6, Schubert 8), but with great conductors this is never a problem as the insights are endlessly fascinating.  What do I consider the highlights?  The first Eroica, with the horn trio capturing perfectly the spirit of the hunt; both Pastorals (I have never cared much for the piece, but Furtwangler kept me spellbound); the Bach and Handel, which revealed hidden depths modern performance styles hide from us; and a Bruckner 8 that left me stunned (I thought I had heard them all, but this was simply in a class by itself: for instance, the realization in the trios that Bruckner was an Austrian, not German composer).  This set is now part of my permanent "go to" list;. I suspect it will be part of yours, too.

    Furtwangler: The Complete RIAS Recordings
  

*by P***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2012*

I have been collecting Furtwangler recordings for over 40 years. Let me simply state that these are among the very best transfers of these performances I have ever heard. At this price it is a steal. There is one flaw. The order of the movements of the Bruckner 8th are incorrect. It is a problem that can be easily fixed in ITunes or if you burn CDs. Wonderful performances, the Wagner, Beethoven, Schubert and Brahms perormances are particularly special. A reminder of a style of conducting that is gone forever.

    Electric Performances but Remastering Issue
  

*by G***L on Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2018*

I  began by listening to select discs out of excitement and now have heard this set front to back, mostly with pure delight.  That these are organized as real performances makes them even better. This isn't a set with three Eroicas in a row; it gives you the sense of excitement of going to the theater on some cold winter night in post-war Berlin.  Most of these are truly magnificent performances that showcase one of the greatest conductors of the 20th century, as well as a method of music making that has now largely fallen to the period-practice HIPster taliban.  Moreover, I have no doubt that many (maybe most or even all) of these are the best transfers and remasters available of these particular recordings.Nonetheless, with extended listening I have found that my head really starts to pound and my molars grind back and forth. The remastering is not done lightly; the recordings feel remastered to within an inch of their lives.  The high end is particularly strong, metallic, and artificial sounding. At times it is difficult to tell what the instrument is because the wave forms are so similar.  The middle is weak. The bass would be weak, but turning it up really brings out incredible depth at the low end, a wonderful surprise today when most string bass and tympani players face under-employment.The impact of the Audite remastering builds over time.  After four hours of listening, I just have to stop and put something else on because my head hurts so much.  Try one disc, one single glorious concert at a time.  For a more natural--if subdued and slightly lost to the ravages of time sound--consider the Praga Digital series of Furtwängler releases.  There are some interesting nearly exact performances, such as Bruckner's 8th recorded in the studio one day before the live concert.
