Notes and Editorial Reviews
A limited-edition 50-CD set of legendary recordings celebrating the world-renowned DECCA sound.
Classic-status pioneering stereo recordings from the past 55 years and starring a galaxy of internationally-acclaimed artistic talent.
Each CD is presented in a sleeve with original cover art.
Where an original release may have been of short duration due to limitations of the LP a bonus work featuring the same artists has been added.
A 200-page booklet documents the development of stereo recording as it developed in the 1950s through to modern digital recordings; there is an article on Decca artists and repertory with particular reference to the artists featured in the set.

Wonderful history, performers and sound for the m April 30, 2012
By S. Livingston (Peabody, MA) See All My Reviews
"I have only listened to the first four of the discs, but I am really blown away by the terrific sound from each of these discs. All of the solo instruments have great timbre and large ensembles have a wonderful sense of depth and the instruments are spread well across the stage. I find no hash in the upper frequencies and the bottom end of the orchestra is well represented from the lowest bass drum sounds up through the trombones and horns. I have many Decca recordings on LP by Ansermet playing Stravinsky and would like to see just an Ansermet/Stravinsky CD set from Decca. I would recommend these recordings to anyone for a great price. You really cannot go wrong with this set. In addition to all of this fabulous music, there is a fascinating history of how Decca developed its sound from WWII up to the present. In comparison, this set is far better than the Stravinsky set released by Columbia/Sony in sound quality and information about the music. Get it before it is gone."

What a nice package! Great music & sound April 16, 2012
By Luciano V. (North Brunswick, NJ) See All My Reviews
"This is a nice box set, both for its music content and the good sound. The alphabetical order helps in choosing the CD, while the alternate color coded envelope helps much in returning to the box. This set contains a wide array of music for many hours of listening. While I will not go into the details of the content - all good choices as far as I am concerned - the small size for so much music makes it a great travel companion into one's vacation destination. I could not have asked for more!"
