At the end of the 1950s, John Barbirolli recorded the last three Dvorak Symphonies, 7, 8, 9, with the newly available stereo technique, plus a selection of the Legends and the Scherzo capriccioso

This initiative greatly contributed to broadening the Bohemian composer's range of discography. These recordings, made from 1957 to 1959, are of excellent sound quality and are still considered among the best by the most demanding collectors, despite all the integral editions that followed in the following years.This 2-CD box set is a reissue of the old Urania catalogue code WS121135.
