For its 125th birthday, Deutsche Grammophon is releasing legendary recordings with highest sound standards: The new audiophile vinyl series The Original Source presents outstanding recordings from the 1970s in a whole new sound quality. For this, the renowned Emil Berliner Studios have remastered and edited the original 4-track tapes in 100% analog quality (AAA) using technologies developed specifically to produce the series. Released on 180-gram vinyl records with deluxe gatefold jackets, the series is limited and numbered.

The era of Seiji Ozawa as principal conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra spanned an impressive 29 years — a period of unparalleled musical excellence. Even before officially taking office, Ozawa and his orchestra created a multi-faceted recording of Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique on Deutsche Grammophon that was praised by the New York Times as particularly "light and mercurial."
