Tchaikovsky: Serenade for Strings; Francesca da Rimini [Hybrid SACD] (2006) more music like this

performed by London Symphony Orchestra, Leopold Stokowski (conductor)
composed by Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky

Recorded in quadraphonic surround sound in 1974, this disc has several things going for it. First is the sound. Not only were the original recordings marvelous -- the detail, the color, and especially the depth of the recordings is unsurpassable -- but the super audio remastering is fantastic -- one seems to be sitting in Wembly's Brent Town Hall ...

Bach: Famous Transcriptions [Includes DVD: Rare Performance of Stokowski on Film] (2004) more music like this

performed by Symphony Orchestra, Leopold Stokowski (conductor)
composed by Johann Sebastian Bach

Yes, these are the definitive late-'50s recordings of Leopold Stokowski conducting his symphony orchestra in his transcriptions of Bach. In terms of sheer aural charisma, they are simply impossible to beat. Stokowski put all the showman and all the charlatan that was in him into his Bach transcriptions and his late-'50s recordings of them are ...

composed by Bedrich Smetana, Franz Liszt, George Enescu, Richard Wagner

All taste abandon, you who listen here. The combination of some of the most banal music ever composed performed by one of the most vulgar men who ever conducted captured in some of the most vulgar sound ever recorded is enough to drive listeners with refined sensibilities to despair. But for less discriminating listeners, the disc called ...

Rimsky-Korsakov: Scheherazade; Russian Easter Overture (2005) more music like this

performed by Erich Gruenberg (violin), Leopold Stokowski (conductor)
composed by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov

Recorded when the conductor was a 93 years old, Leopold Stokowski's 1975 recording of Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade with the Royal Philharmonic is still prime Stokowski. The instrumental colors are vivid and spectacular. The tone qualities are lush and ravishing. The long melodies are full and sensual. The formal shapes are strong and supple. ...

Music & Arts' Stokowski Conducts Tchaikovsky and Avshalomov experimental stereo recordings from 1952 is precisely the sort of thing historical recording buffs don't ever expect to see.
