This inexpensive, 15-CD set from Warner Classics starts with Monteverdi's Orfeo and ends with Dvořák's "New World" Symphony and The Water Goblin. That's basically four centuries of music!. In between we find music by Biber, Vivaldi, Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Mendelssohn, J. Strauss, Jr, Bruckner, and it's all basically terrific. No other conductor has ever played such a range of music so well, and it would be difficult to imagine a finer selection of representative recordings. Amazing.
