Claudio Abbado and the London Symphony Orchestra presented a highly praised interpretation of Stravinsky's Sacre du printemps in 1976. They do justice to the complexity of the rhythmically demanding work as well as to the loving elaboration of numerous details. Among the many recordings of the Sacre, this is certainly a highlight.

For its 125th birthday, Deutsche Grammophon is releasing legendary recordings with highest sound standards: The new audiophile vinyl series The Original Source presents outstanding recordings from the 1970s in a whole new sound quality. For this, the renowned Emil Berliner Studios have remastered and edited the original four-track tapes in 100% analog quality (AAA) using technologies developed specifically to produce the series. The sonic differences to the original releases are considerable: greater clarity, more subtleties and improvements in frequency response, while at the same time less background noise, distortion and compression allow for an audiophile listening experience like never before.

The copies of this series appear on 180g vinyl records and in a deluxe gatefold edition with original covers and lyrics. They are accompanied by additional photos and facsimiles of the recording logs and band boxes, and an article explains the exact technical background. Due to the high demand, an unnumbered reprint is now being produced.
