VC GIVEAWAY | Orpheus Chamber Orchestra 55-CD Set

In celebration of its 50th anniversary in 2022, the ensemble released its complete recordings on the Deutsche Grammophon label

 

The Violin Channel, in conjunction with Deutsche Grammophon, is this week giving away Orpheus Chamber Orchestra's complete recordings in a 55-CD box set.

The set features the ensemble's recordings of Mozart, Haydn, Ives, Stravinsky, Schoenberg, Rossini, Vivaldi, and more — as well as an unpublished 2018 recording of Mendelssohn's Italian Symphony, a 148-page booklet of orchestra archives, and 14 albums that have not previously been digitally accessible.

Featured soloists in the collection include Martha Argerich, Gidon Kremer, Mischa Maisky, and Gil Shaham.

"The recordings in this collection represent the first fruits of the historic collaboration that is Orpheus," Orpheus artistic director and violist Dov Scheindlin told The Violin Channel.

"Born of our time, we embody the democratizing wave that is still cresting in classical music. These recordings helped to demolish the Maestro myth, that leadership must be assigned to one firm hand, and brought a spirit of participation and equality to the fore. These recordings document the success of that vision."

Founded in 1972, the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra is a world-renowned ensemble known especially for its cooperative mindset and flexible, unconventional interpretations, due in part to its conductorless nature.
