Review: Warner's Gustav Leonhardt Edition--New, Improved, Expanded, Enlarged, and Amplified
The last Teldec Leonhardt Edition had 21 CDs. This "new" expanded edition adds 14 discs from Leonhardt's Virgin Veritas recordings, bringing the total to 35. Leonhardt was a true pioneer, one who did as much for the discovery of early music as just about anyone, including performing it with aristocratic seriousness and surrounding himself with a group of colleagues and students whose names read like a "who's who" of the period instrument movement. In other words, this box is self-recommending.
