Vocal Works

Leonard Bernstein The Vocal Edition completes the series of repertoire collection which had its sensational start in 2010 with The Symphony Edition, which sold more than 18,000 copies, and continued with the Concertos and Orchestral Works set released in 2014. The 56 albums of The Vocal Edition contain operatic and choral works and songs, as well as numerous alternate symphonic recordings not included in The Symphony Edition, so that the Symphony, Concerto and Vocal editions form a complete set of Bernsteins recordings in the Sony Classical catalogue. Several albums additionally present a selection of historic Bernstein recordings made for RCA Victor in the 1940s. All the recordings come from the best available audio sources. This release marks the end of the Leonard Bernstein centennial celebrations on Sony Classical, which has also seen the release of Leonard Bernstein Remastered and Leonard Bernstein The Composer.
