Editorial Reviews

Product Description

A New Complete Edition, presenting Mozart's entire work including every last fragment, in the most authoritative edition ever created.
The Edition presents over 240 hours of music, 600 solo performers and ensembles including 60 orchestras and every significant Mozart interpreter of the past 30 years.

Five hours of new recordings have been commissioned for this Edition including premieres of previously-lost compositions and every perform-able fragment. Moreover, a further 25 CDs present key works in great alternative versions, while five more CDs present legendary and historic performances, making this Edition a document of the greatest Mozart performances as well as of his complete works.

Two handsome, lavishly illustrated hardcover books present documentation at a level of authority never before seen in any boxed set, with over 150,000 words in each language, written by one of the great Mozart scholars of our age, Professor Clifford Eisen.

Editorial is presented across two editions, one with English and French language, and the other with German and Japanese. Lending the Edition even more weight is the publication for the first time of a new Kochel guide presenting in short form the new Kochel catalogue developed over many years by the International Stiftung Mozarteum.

Four frame-able prints are included in every set, including a Mozart letter and a score.

Review

Mozart did even out-do Beethoven in some ways, in his simplicity and his incredible economy of notes --Artur Rubinstein

It was, to me, most important to sing and speak at the same time, and Mozart operas were the greatest model for this. --Alfred Brendel

It s just extraordinary to be doing this music, singing this music, working with this composer, playing with this composer, and having those moments - suddenly, you are in heaven. --Rolando Villazon

Impressive, Totally Amazed and Wow into Speechless!!!
I had posted this same review on the Amazon.co.uk (UK) site where I was a verified buyer…I am amazed with the beauty and size of this Mozart 225 box set! If I had to pay 2 or even 3 times what I paid for it I wouldn’t have mind at all. And it is so well packaged. It was shipped from Amazon UK to the USA. The box and everything in it arrived in complete mint condition even though it traveled half way around the world. There is not even a scratch or dented corner. Either Amazon or DG/Decca took the time and expense to ensure it was package well. Please see my uploaded photos.Initially I was VERY hesitant to spend several hundred dollars buying this box set. You have to understand that I already owned the original 180 CD set of the complete Mozart issued in the 1990s and it had set me back a tidy sum back then. I am glad I went against my doubts and purchase this set.I have about 40 “mega” classical box sets from Warner/EMI/Erato, Sony/RCA/Columbia and Decca/DG. I thought my Murray Perahia, Yo-yo Ma and Complete Rubinstein box sets from Sony/RCA were great but this Mozart 225 box tops ever box set I have by a huge margin. Everything about the box and contents radiate beauty, elegance and quality. The photos really don’t do the box justice. It is just pure delight and magnificence and a great sense of joy owning something like this and slowly sampling all the wonder music in the 200 CDs.For those of you like me who already own the 1991 Philips Mozart Edition 180 CD set, I recommend you purchase this. The Philips set couldn’t even compare with this set:1) The music quality of this set tops the Philips version by a wide margin.2) 70% of the recordings are different from the 1991 Philips Mozart Edition.3) There are an additional 20 CDs compare to the 1991 Philips version (200 vs 180 CDs).4) This set provides authoritative works in the form of 2 fully and beautifully illustrated hardback books that are detailed, informative and thorough.Philips is now owned by the Universal Music Group (UMG) and due to its ownership of the DG, Decca and Philips labels UMG now owns the greatest classical catalog ever assembled. UMG has drawn on this catalog to create the greatest Mozart collection ever available in this set. If you were to acquire each of these outstanding works individually, it would cost you thousands of dollars, assuming if it is even available and in print.This wonderful set has a limited edition of 15,000. My version is already in the high 6000s and I had ordered my copy very early. Some commentators on Classical Music forums or web sites mention receiving numbers as high as the 9000s. Get it before this magnificent and wonderful set is sold out just like prior legendary sets like the “142 CD Arthur Rubinstein: The Complete Album Collection” that is now sold for up to 10 times its original price.Christmas is coming and this should be on every classical music fan’s wish list!
