Sir Colin Davis has long been considered the world's finest Berlioz conductor, and over the years, Philips has released all of the composer's major works with Davis at the helm. Now, they're all here, in a 24-CD box, and it is an astonishing achievement. This treasure trove consists of the definitive, available readings of , , and ; a wonderfully energetic, passionate ; a Te Deum which is huge yet clear and not over-the-top for its own sake; with different singers (of varying ranges in different songs), as Berlioz wanted them performed; the young Dame Janet Baker superb in Herminie and La Mort de Clopatre; a relaxed, sweet ; a Requiem which could knock you over; a which is both lyrical and exciting; a performance of Llio which almost makes sense of that strange work; a with atmosphere and thrills; along with 7 overtures, 5 songs, and more. In addition to the moderate price, the packaging is such that the 24 CDs takes up less space than just the earlier releases of and together. This is one-stop shopping at its best.
