{"product_id":"nikolaus-harnoncourt_les-symphonies_2020","title":"Les Symphonies","description":"This box set celebrates the partnership of the eminent conductor Nikolaus Harnoncourt (1929-2016) leading the Chamber Orchestra of Europe (COE) in a memorable cycle of the complete Symphonies of Franz Schubert at the Styriarte Festival in Graz, Austria, in July 1988. Harnoncourt was a notable and perhaps controversial Schubertian who, with his favorite orchestra, set out to re-examine everything. The players he worked with in 1988 speak of how he changed their perceptions, discovering Schubert's work for themselves, free from the accretions of previous performance tradition. Harnoncourt wanted Schubert's music to be at the forefront, to reconstruct it, to test and evaluate the contribution of each instrument, and for the musicians to take as many risks as they wished.","brand":"Nikolaus Harnoncourt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58295729914200,"sku":null,"price":24001850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/4943\/0360\/files\/5060244551602.jpg?v=1787870603","url":"https:\/\/vinyles.com\/en-us\/products\/nikolaus-harnoncourt_les-symphonies_2020","provider":"Vinyles.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
