Sony Classical issues here a comprehensive edition of Zubin Mehtas recordings for the RCA Red Seal and CBS/Sony labels. This extensive set documents half a century of outstanding achievement by one of the foremost conductors of our time. The Viennese-trained Indian maestro has enjoyed particularly close associations with the flagship orchestras of Vienna, New York, Los Angeles, Israel and Berlin, and the new box features him directing those ensembles in symphonies, concertos, symphonic poems, ballets and opera excerpts by Beethoven, Mozart, Brahms, Liszt, Wagner, Tchaikovsky, Bruckner, Mahler, Johann and Richard Strauss, Schoenberg, Prokofiev, Rachmaninoff, Stravinsky, Bartók and other composers. The lineup of soloists boasts such illustrious names as violinists Isaac Stern, Pinchas Zukerman, Midori and Nikolaj Znaider; pianists Vladimir Horowitz, Arthur Rubinstein, Emil Gilels, Daniel Barenboim, Murray Perahia, Yefim Bronfman and Rudolf Buchbinder; and sopranos Montserrat Caballé and Jane Eaglen. Mehtas highly successful Vienna Philharmonic New Years Concerts from 1990, 1995, 1998, 2002 and 2015 are, of course also included as well as the Verdi Requiem and several complete operas: his celebrated recordings of Il trovatore and Tosca starring Leontyne Price, Plácido Domingo and Sherrill Milnes, along with Le nozze di Figaro with Michele Pertusi, Karita Mattila and Lucio Gallo and Salome with Eva Marton.
