{"product_id":"the-art-of-the-producer-12cd-boxset","title":"The Art of the Producer: 12CD Boxset","description":"\u003cp\u003eDecca’s John Culshaw was the most influential recording producer of the 20th century, and even predicted music streaming decades before the launch of iTunes and Spotify.  This new 12-CD set marks the centenary of his birth in May and is a unique proposition celebrating the Producer as the Artist.  This collector’s trove of gems includes: Copland playing Copland; the first-ever studio recording of Barber's Adagio for Strings; the 1951 \u0026amp; 1953 Bayreuth recordings; a lost tape of Clifford Curzon; and the first international release of Georg Solti’s 1954 Brahms German Requiem, recorded by Culshaw for Capitol Records.  The accompanying booklet includes a 6,500-word essay by Dominic Fyfe and many previously unseen photographs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD 1 - \u003c\/strong\u003eThe First Year, 1948\/9.
