About

A small discography remains of the great American conductor who died prematurely in 1977, if we exclude the important recordings of complete operas made for RCA and EMI.

This 2-CD set highlights some important recordings such as Pictures at an Exhibition, Schubert's Ninth and Strauss's symphonic pieces. An exception is a rarity such as Brahms's Third, never recorded by Schippers and found in a precious RAI document.
