~ Release series

Annotation

Releases of this series should go to both the labels Deutsche Grammophon Musikfest and Deutsche Grammophon.

"MUSIKFEST is Deutsche Grammophon’s exclusive series of classical favourites everyone knows and loves to listen to. Many music lovers want to hear just a few short works at a time, or several excerpts of the beloved symphonies, sonatas, instrumental solos, ensembles or choruses, instead of a complete symphony or a longer work.
Deutsche Grammophon makes this possible with MUSIKFEST, the unique series devoted to specifically selected programs of the greatest moments from the classical masterpieces which have long been the world’s favorites.
And MUSIKFEST presents the world’s greatest artists playing the world’s finest music in Deutsche Grammophon’s world-famous top quality sound – yours to enjoy and share with others.
The MUSIKFEST series provides hours of listening pleasure on disc or cassette for every occasion and budget."
