ETERNA COMPLETE BEETHOVEN EDITION 1977, KARL SUSKE , 10 BOX SETS, 112 LPs MINT

Description :

LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN - THE COMPLETE ETERNA EDITION FROM 1977 AND BEYOND - 112 RECORDS. NEARLY ALL IN MINT CONDITION, THE RECORDS ALL HOUSED IN POLYLINED INNER SLEEVES SINCE THEY LEFT THE ETERNA PRESSING PLANT, 112 INDIVIDUAL SLEEVES. ONE 60-PAGED-BOOKLET IN BOX SET VOLUME 1 AND 9 LEAFLETS FOR A QUICK OVERVIEW, ONE IN EACH BOX FROM VOLUME 2 TO VOLUME 10.

I AM THE SECOND OWNER. FIRST OWNER WAS THE FORMER INTERIOR MINISTER OF THE GERMAN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC, MR. FRIEDRICH DICKEL. BELOW YOU WILL FIND MORE INFORMATION OF THE HISTORY OF THIS SET.


UP FOR AUCTION IS THE BEETHOVEN JUBILEE EDITION IN TEN VOLUMES THAT WAS PUBLISHED BY THE EAST GERMAN ETERNA LABEL IN 1977.

THIS THE COMPLETE DEAL: ALL RECORDS THAT WERE EVER PUBLISHED BY ETERNA. INCLUDED ARE ALSO THE RECORDINGS WHICH WERE PUBLISHED AFTER 1977.
 

THE SET AND IT'S HISTORY

YOU WILL FIND THE PIANO SONATAS PLAYED BY DIETER ZECHLIN, THE SYMPHONIES BY MASUR, THE PIANO CONCERTOS BY GILELS AND SZELL, THE LATE STRING QUARTETS BY AMADEUS QUARTET AND FIDELIO BY BOHM AND SEVERAL OTHER INTERNATIONAL PRODUCTIONS.

BUT, FIRST OF ALL YOU CAN GET SOME OF THE CHAMBER MUSIC INCLUDING A LOT OF ETERNA'S OWN MATERIAL:

FOR INSTANCE THE COMPLETE VIOLIN SONATAS, STRING TRIOS AND THE MIDDLE QUARTETS WITH THE HIGHLY ACCLAIMED VIOLINIST KARL SUSKE.

ALSO THE EARLY STRING QUARTETS PERFORMED BY THE BORODIN QUARTET.

FURTHERMORE YOU WILL FIND ROSTROPOVICH AND RICHTER'S FAMOUS CELLO SONATAS AND THE TRIOS BY BOSSE/ERBEN/KOOTZ. ALL VERY SOUGHT-AFTER RECORDINGS, ESPECIALLY IN THIS MINT CONDITION.

I MADE PICTURES OF THE ENTIRE CATALOGUE, SO YOU HAVE A LIST OF ALL RECORDINGS WHICH ARE INCLUDED.

THE SLEEVES ARE NEARLY ALL IN GREAT NM - MINT CONDITION, AND THE RECORDS ARE NEARLY ALL IN MINT CONDITION. THE FIRST OWNER PLAYED ONLY FEW RECORDS OF THE SYMPHONIES FOR ONE TIME. THE 10 GREEN BOXES ARE IN EX-NM CONDITION. FEW OF THEM HAVE MINOR SHELF WEAR ONLY.

AS  I WROTE ABOVE, DUE TO THE PROMINENT STATUS OF THE FIRST OWNER, THE RECORDS WERE PACKED INTO POLYLINED INNER SLEEVES DIRECT AFTER PRODUCTION. THIS PROTECTED THE RECORDS FROM THE USUAL WEAR CAUSED BY THE NORMALLY USED ETERNA PAPER INNER SLEEVES.

AS I PURCHASED THE SET, 104 RECORDS, ALL THAT WERE PUBLISHED UNTIL 1977, WERE INCLUDED. 8 RECORDS WERE PUBLISHED AFTER 1977, SO I ADDED THESE 8 TO THIS EDITION. THESE 8 RECORDS MAY HAVE SOME COVER WEAR OR FEW HAIRLINES. THIS 8 RECORDS ARE, LISTED BY THE CATALOG NUMBERS, NUMBER 001, 012, 034, 064, 066, 091, 099 AND 108.

IN THE CATALOG YOU WILL FIND THAT 116 RECORDS ARE LISTED AND THAT THIS OFFERED SET HAS ONLY 112 RECORDS. THAT IS BECAUSE THESE MISSING 5 RECORDS WERE NEVER PUBLISHED. I HAVE SEARCHED THE 5 RECORDS FOR YEARS AND ASKED SEVERAL OTHER DEALERS AND COLLECTORS. NO ONE EVER HAD SAW ANY OF THE 5 MISSING PIECES SO IT IS PRETTY SURE THAT THEY WERE NEVER BEEN PUBLISHED.  THESE 5 RECORDS ARE, LISTED BY THE CATALOG NUMBERS, NUMBER 058, 092, 093, 106, AND 107.

SO THIS IS THE MOST COMPLETE EDITION YOU WILL EVER FIND!

I BUYED THIS SET YEARS AGO FROM THE DAUGHTER OF MR. FRIEDRICH DICKEL, WHO WAS 26 YEARS THE INTERIOR MINISTER OF THE GERMAN DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC (GDR), FROM 1963 TO 1989.

SHE DISSOLVED THE COMPLETE HOUSEHOLD AFTER HER MOTHER, THE WIDOW OF MINISTER DICKEL, HAS BEEN DIED. 

SHE TOLD ME THAT THIS EDITION WAS PRESENTED DIRECTLY BY ETERNA TO MINISTER DICKEL AS A GIFT AT THE BEETHOVEN-YEAR 1977. THIS SET WAS, AS I WROTE ABOVE, ALMOST NEVER BEEN USED AND HAS BEEN WELL KEPT IN A CABINET DURING ALL THE YEARS.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE TO SET A REASONABLE RESERVE PRICE FOR THIS UNIQUE EDITION.
