Description
Legendary performance of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony with Arturo Toscanini and the NBC Symphony. Recorded in Carnegie Hall, NY, on March 31 and April 1, 1952, the soloists for the last movement, the beloved and inspiring "Ode to Joy", are Eileen Farrell, Jan Peerce, Nan Merriman, and Norman Scott. The Robert Shaw Chorale is prepared by Robert Shaw. Splice-free MONO HALF TRACK reel tape plays beautifully on my Revox A-77 Deck. Tape is designed for a half-track machine tho it can be heard to slightly lesser advantage on a quarter track machine. Box has some minor age-related wear. Original pamphlet enclosed. Packing, USPS Media Mail shipping, and insurance are a flat $5 to domestic U.S. destinations. Priority mailing on request. International destinations will cost more. I prefer US Postal Money Orders or PayPal. Other money orders and personal cheques will require clearance at my bank before shipping.
