指揮大師賽爾經典全集

＊二十世紀偉大指揮家喬治．賽爾的藝術成就總整理
＊「完美主義者」賽爾造就「美國五大」克里夫蘭管弦樂團的璀璨里程碑
＊超低價全套49CD，立體聲時代的賽爾美學，包括過世前兩個月於日本演出的最後實況錄音
 
被譽為二十世紀最偉大指揮家之一的喬治．賽爾，1897年出生於匈牙利布達佩斯，在作曲家理查史特勞斯的力薦下，開始在歐洲樂壇發光發熱，1939年第二次訪美之後，決定留在美國發展，和紐約愛樂及大都會歌劇院有多年的合作演出。1946年賽爾歸化美國籍，同時也接下了克里夫蘭管弦樂團的音樂總監職務，這份工作不僅是賽爾個人指揮生涯的分水嶺，更帶領該團從一個僅成立二十八年的地區型年輕樂團，迅速轉變成為「美國五大」之一，甚至水準攀至世界一流的地位，賽爾統御克里夫蘭管弦樂團一直到1970年過世為止，並留下讓後人敬仰的許多精采錄音。
 
這套「指揮大師賽爾經典全集」共有49張CD，主要是賽爾與克里夫蘭管弦樂團長達二十四年合作的非凡成就，包括貝多芬全本交響曲，莫札特、海頓、舒曼、馬勒等之重要交響曲，以及理查史特勞斯的交響詩和多首必聽的管弦樂名曲。此外還有賽爾與維也納愛樂合作的布魯克納第七號交響曲，大師親自彈奏鋼琴的室內樂曲，最值得注意的是這套全集收錄了賽爾在過世前兩個月率領克里夫蘭管弦樂團於日本東京的實況演出錄音。每張專輯都見證了賽爾被譽為「完美主義者」的美譽，他對音樂的毫不妥協，對樂團的嚴格要求（就有團員說「連我們的情緒都要排練」），成就了這套爐火純青的極致藝術。更值得收藏的是，這系列錄音皆是立體聲問世之後的傑作，直到二十一世紀，仍是最鮮明且獨特的賽爾美學。
