Eccentric and dilettante, the quintessential English grand
bourgeois, Sir Thomas Beecham was a self-taught conductor with a highly
personal style and taste, brimming with elegance and charm. Beyond his tireless
activity on stages around the world, he championed an eclectic repertoire
ranging from Handel to Stravinsky, encompassing great classics as well as
French composers such as Debussy, Saint-Saëns, and Bizet —his Carmen remains a
landmark recording.
A passionate advocate
for the music of his compatriot Frederick Delius, Beecham also played a pivotal
role in 20th-century English musical life, founding both the London
Philharmonic Orchestra (1932) and the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (1946). This
box set brings together all the stereo recordings from his rich discography for
Columbia and HMV, including the very first experimental stereo recording of
Mozart’s Symphony No. 41 first movement from April 1934.
