| The vast Beethoven cycle recorded by Otto Klemperer at the baton of the Philharmonia Orchestra is one of the most valuable testimonies of the conductor’s artistry. Apart from the nine symphonies (in their stereo version), this collection notably includes the four Leonore overtures and an orchestral transcription of the Great Fugue.
