For much of the 1960s and 70s an exclusive Decca artist, he forged a remarkable recorded legacy that bridged Central European tradition and American dynamism. His performances combined interpretative insight with electrifying energy, captured in recordings renowned for their brilliance and sonic splendour.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpanning repertoire from Mozart to Mahler, this comprehensive box set gathers Mehta’s Decca and Deutsche Grammophon recordings over nearly 50 years from 1965 to 2013. Arranged alphabetically by composer and supplemented by thematic collections, it reflects two of his principal artistic homes – Israel and Vienna – while also showcasing landmark collaborations in Berlin, London, Florence, and New York. The Mehta\/Decca story began in Vienna in 1965, when, just days after his 26th birthday, he recorded a Bruckner Ninth Symphony that remains a touchstone of the catalogue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Philharmonic anthology features complete symphony cycles of Schubert with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra and Schumann with the Wiener Philharmoniker, alongside two distinguished Beethoven Piano Concerto cycles – with Vladimir Ashkenazy and the Wiener Philharmoniker, and with Radu Lupu and the Israel Philharmonic. Among the celebrated soloists represented are Lang Lang, Mischa Maisky, Shlomo Mintz, Luciano Pavarotti, Itzhak Perlman, Leontyne Price, Arthur Rubinstein, Joan Sutherland, and János Starker. A discerning champion of emerging talent, Mehta also partnered with David Garrett (in Bruch and Brahms) and Sayaka Shoji (in a programme of Romantic virtuoso works). Live recordings include highlights from the 1982 Huberman Festival (featuring a dream cast of violinists – Ivry Gitlis, Ida Haendel, Shlomo Mintz, Itzhak Perlman, Isaac Stern, and Pinchas Zukerman) and a 1988 celebration concert in memory of Georg Solti (with Angela Gheorghiu and Anne Sofie von Otter).\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot to be forgotten is the classic recording of Schmidt’s sheerly gorgeous Fourth Symphony, recorded at the request of the Wiener Philharmoniker, the iridescent incidental music for Beethoven’s Creatures of Prometheus and a suave Mendelssohn Octet in an orchestral version performed by the string section of the Israel Philharmonic. The set includes Mehta’s major opera recordings – Turandot, La fanciulla del West, Il trovatore and La traviata – and brings together several performances receiving their first international CD and digital release.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePresented with original jackets, a selection of rare photographs and newly commissioned liner notes by David Patmore, James Jolly and Cyrus Meher-Homji, this edition offers a fitting tribute to one of the great conductors of our time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 1:\u003cbr\u003eBARTÓK Concerto for Orchestra · Hungarian Sketches IPO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCDs 2–4:\u003cbr\u003eBEETHOVEN Piano Concertos 1–5 Vladimir Ashkenazy, WP\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCDs 5–8:\u003cbr\u003eBEETHOVEN Piano Concertos 1–5 · 2 Rondos Op.51 · Piano Sonatas 19 \u0026amp; 20 Radu Lupu, IPO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 9:\u003cbr\u003eBEETHOVEN Die Geschöpfe des Prometheus Ballet music IPO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 10:\u003cbr\u003eBERLIOZ Symphonie fantastique NYP\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 11:\u003cbr\u003eBERLIOZ Harold en Italie Daniel Benyamini, IPO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 12:\u003cbr\u003eBLOCH Voice in the Wilderness · Schelomo János Starker, IPO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 13:\u003cbr\u003eBRAHMS Symphony No.1 · Tragic Overture WP\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 14:\u003cbr\u003eBRAHMS Piano Concerto No.1 Arthur Rubinstein, IPO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 15:\u003cbr\u003eBRAHMS Piano Concerto No.2 Vladimir Ashkenazy, LSO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 16:\u003cbr\u003eBRAHMS Violin Concerto · BRUCH Violin Concerto No.1 David Garrett, IPO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCDs 17–18:\u003cbr\u003eBRUCKNER Symphony No.9 · Te Deum · Mass No.2 Wiener Staatsopernchor, WP\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 19:\u003cbr\u003eCHOPIN Piano Concertos 1 \u0026amp; 2 Lang Lang, WP\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 20:\u003cbr\u003eDVOŘÁK Symphony No.7 IPO\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCD 21:\u003cbr\u003eDVOŘÁK Cello Concerto · R.
