Shostakovitch-THE PHILADELPHIA ORCHESTRA-EUGENE ORMANDY-CONCERTO FOR CELLO IN E FLAT, Op.107 - Mstislav Rostropovich, Soloist

It is the second title for the new "Classical" collection, dedicated to the great historical performers and created to reproduce in Master Tapes format important works already published in the past by international record labels.

We are pleased to announce the official collaboration agreement we have reached with the ERMITAGE record label, which has granted for this project the use of the precious original analogue tapes of its historical archive, until today jealously preserved in France with great care.

Great performers and important titles will enrich this collection in the future by offering you the possibility of an excellent listening through the Hemiolia Master Tapes expertly remastered by Pietro Benini in our studio in full analogue domain.
