And so does anyone who gets a seat in the auditorium: New York’s Carnegie Hall is one of the most important concert halls in the world and can now look back on more than 125 years of music and unique performances With “Great Moments at Carnegie Hall,” music lovers secure a front-row seat to 43 CDs. The compilation brings together the greatest highlights in the history of the concert hall. The tracklist ranges from perennial highlights, such as Arturo Toscanini’s 1931 recording of Beethoven’s 5th Symphony, to previously unreleased rehearsal material For example, listeners can familiarize themselves for the first time with Sviatoslav Richter’s Beethoven rehearsals from 1960 or follow Evgeny Kissin and James Levine as they tune in at the piano in 2005 Rare gems such as unpublished recordings by e.g. Jennie Tourel or Jorge Bolet can also be found in this collection The 104-page accompanying book in high quality leads through the history of Carnegie Hall in pictures, while the ears listen to great names like Leonard Bernstein, Yo-Yo Ma or Vladimir Horowitz.
