WILLIAMS, JOHN - COMPLETE PHILIPS RECORDINGS

Complete Philips Recordings to monumentalny zestaw dokumentujący jedną z najważniejszych współprac w historii muzyki symfonicznej i filmowej: złoty okres Johna Williamsa jako dyrygenta Boston Pops Orchestra. To właśnie na tych nagraniach Williams — już wówczas legenda Hollywood — pokazuje drugie oblicze: mistrza orkiestracji, interpretatora klasyków i propagatora symfonicznego brzmienia w świecie rozrywki. Zestaw obejmuje pełne, starannie odrestaurowane albumy z katalogu Philips, łącząc w jednym wydaniu energię koncertowej orkiestry, elegancję klasycznej tradycji i wyjątkową muzyczną wyobraźnię Williamsa.
