Herbert von Karajan Schoenberg - Berg - Webern (Original Source Series) - LP Box Set
Numbered, Limited Edition 180g 4LP Box Set — The Original Source Series
In 1973/74, Herbert von Karajan and the Berliner Philharmoniker recorded groundbreaking orchestral works by the three representatives of the Second Viennese School — Arnold Schoenberg, Alban Berg and Anton Webern.
