We have curated 125 years of music history, we have chosen some of the most sought after recordings with the great conductors of this and the last century. We are looking back upon more than a hundred years of musical collaboration and artistic frugality. Our exclusive selection includes Hans Knappertsbusch, Fritz Rieger, Eugen Jochum, Sergiu Celibidache, Zubin Mehta, Lorin Maazel, Günter Wand, Horst Stein, James Levine, Christian Thielemann and Valery Gergiev.
With our 125 Years deluxe CD-box set we want to invite audiences around the world to join in our anniversary celebration by making our musical history accessible worldwide. Additionally, this season will be accompanied with the largest media campaign of the Munich Philharmonic as of yet, in terms of radio and tv concert broadcasts.
