An ABSOLUTE ORIGINAL shellac 12" Vinyl LP Box Set on 78 rpm:

LEOPOLD STOKOWSKI & Philadelphia Orchestra

Rimsky- Korsakov: SCHEHERAZADE

Symphonic Suite "From the Arabian Nights"

RCA Musical Masterpiece Records Box set

6 x 12" on 78 rpm, still plays good!

COVER JACKET: Cover has minimal wear, price sticker on top right torn out , but cover made of hard paper holds very good. EXTRA is 4-page pamphlet as seen. Sleeves for records hold very good. VG for 60+ years old!

VINYL: shellac all used nut in very nice condition. A little bit warped at end but no effect on play. Cleaned from dust, but if cleaned better should produce cleaner sound and prevent skips.

SOUND: I played each record. They all play solid, background noise is not so present! Orchestra dominates the sound if recorded louder, but quiet parts have some 'sh' sounds heard! OVERALL SOLID PLAY for 78 rpm standards -  mainly very nice VG sound

COMPOSER: Rimsky- Korsakov Nikolai Andreyevich Rimsky-Korsakov (18 March [O.S. 6 March] 1844 – 21 June [O.S. 8 June] 1908) was a Russian composer, and a member of the group of composers known as The Five. He was a master of orchestration. His best-known orchestral compositions—Capriccio Espagnol, the Russian Easter Festival Overture, and the symphonic suite Scheherazade—are staples of the classical music repertoire, along with suites and excerpts from some of his 15 operas. Scheherazade is an example of his frequent use of fairy tale and folk subjects.

ARTIST: LEOPOLD STOKOWSKI - Leopold Anthony Stokowski (18 April 1882 – 13 September 1977) was a British conductor. One of the leading conductors of the early and mid-20th Century, he is best known for his long association with the Philadelphia Orchestra and for appearing in the film Fantasia. He was especially noted for his free-hand conducting style that spurned the traditional baton and for obtaining a characteristically sumptuous sound from the orchestras he directed.
