Using the now famous 35mm recording decks at Walthamstow Assembly Hall in 1959, Bert Whyte and team Everest captured in amazing detail all the nuances and complexity of the Beethoven symphonies. Using the original 35mm tapes to do the transfers reveals how truly wonderful both the performances and the recordings compare with each other efforts by major labels of the same era. The LP set includes all nine symphonies spread over 10 discs and includes a bonus 11th disc, a 12" single-sided 45 RPM disc of the Egmont Overture. The LPs were mastered and cut on an all-tube cutting system at the hands of Bernie "The Wizard" Grundman assisted by Len Horowitz running the 35mm tape machine. All LPs are on Clarity 200-gram Super Vinyl Profile pressings to insure maximum playback fidelity. The discs come in a beautiful box that includes the original art from the extremely rare boxed set from Everest along with a reproduction of the original deluxe edition booklet.
