To mark his 95th birthday in September 2024, Decca is releasing this outstanding CD edition: Christoph von Dohnányis - The Cleveland Years. Born in Berlin in 1929, Dohnányi, who is still conducting today at the age of 94, is, together with Herbert Blomstedt, one of the true grand masters of the orchestral business. Decca's collaboration with the Cleveland Orchestra and Dohnányi lasted from 1984 to 1997. Dohnányi's relationship with Cleveland was one of the most successful ships between an orchestra and a conductor, a collaboration that was captured in many critically acclaimed recordings.
In addition to Mozart and the great Romantic works of Schumann, Mahler and Bruckner, this edition offers impressive recordings of 20th century composers: Varèse, Ives, Schönberg and Lutoslawski, to name but a few. Wagner's “Rheingold” and “Walküre” complete the set and offer a well-rounded portrait of the conductor's Cleveland years.
The 40-CD set includes the original covers, photos of the recordings and an essay by Andrew Stewart.
