Volume 96: Beethoven From Boston

It’s a 78 RPM Sunday, the last one for the year. This is one of the longer symphony performances in my dad’s collection. It was written by someone who remains one of the most admired composers in the history of Western music conducted by a long-tenured Russian turned American director. So get ready for Sergei conducting Ludwig in Beantown with Volume 96: Beethoven From Boston.
