5.0 out of 5 stars Boskovsky and the Strauss Family of Vienna., 12 Jun 2003
By A Customer
A long series of Strauss music recordings conducted by Willi Boskovsky provides the contents of this slender, super-compact box of 6 CDs. Those who collected the original issues should check the contents before jettisoning them, because not everything has been reissued here. I especially regret that the vocal version of "An der schönen blauen Donau" has been omitted.

No combination has ever excelled Willi Boskovsky and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra in performing this repertoire. Although the waltzes, polkas, quadrilles, marches and overtures were performed over and over again by these musicians, there is never a hint of workaday routine or staleness to be heard here. Everything seems to unfold naturally. Each item's inherent character is displayed. Tiny nuances and felicities of phrasing and a balance that favors the melody and reduces the accompaniment make these performances inimitable. The performance of "Morgenblätter" seems to provide a tad more excitement and impact than the other 85 items.

The recordings were made between 1960 and 1976. They are studio recordings, not deriving from the famous New Year concerts, and all but the few items from the very earliest year provide excellent sound.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is really the ONLY Strauss set you will ever need!, 4 Dec 2008
We have all seen those ads with "The Only Opera CD you will ever need" or "The Only Classical CD you will ever need" haven't we?
Well, I thought that the "Only ever need" expression was trite and hackneyed.
Until I played though this recording.
It really IS the ONLY Strauss (family) music set you will ever need (or want).
Not only does it contain music(obviously) by Johann Strauss Elder and Younger,but also by Johann the Youngers brothers Josef and Eduard;equally as fine musicians as their brother and father if (sadly) lesser known.
Add to this probably the greatest orchestra in the world,The Vienna Philharmonic;conducted by the inimitable and matchless Willi Boskovsky.
What more could you ask?
Just put a disc on and float away,or if you are like me,start to sway.
Given the price that it is,can you afford NOT to buy it?
No I thought not.
