Background on this ebay item:
To seek out each individual LP in this marvelous boxed set would be very difficult and extremely expensive. This set puts together the best of the Mercury catalog at a fraction of the price! If you haven't considered buying the boxed set, we would highly recommend that you think it over as they won't last long and when they go out of print, they will skyrocket in price.
Each LP is housed in a replica of the original LP sleeve with its very distinctive cover art and in a range of repertory that typifies the adventurous and pioneering spirit of Mercury Living Presence - from Beethoven with Dorati [a very late Mercury recording and very rare LP] and his seminal 1962 LP "Vienna 1908-1914" - a ground breaking recording of music by the composers of the Second Viennese School. Dorati also conducts a celebrated French programme "Dada - Surrealism" - with Satie's Parade and Milhaud's Le Boeuf sur le toit and shorter pieces by Auric and Francaix.
More French repertory is showcased in Marcel Dupre's recording of Saint-Saens' "Organ Symphony" under the baton of Paul Paray.
Two LPs feature American music by Chadwick, Sessions and McPhee with Howard Hanson and the Eastman-Rochester Orchestra.
