These important recordings are previously unpublished and came from the RAI Archieves of Naples. They were realised at the beginning of the Sixties, and they are the result of the cooperation of "Alessandro Scarlatti" Orchestra and the conductor Lovro con Matacic. Also, it is very important the complete version of the Incidental Music from Egmont, here in the italian version, that stands among the very very rare complete recordings of this work. Also the version of the Symphony No. 6 is unpublished, as well as the Der Freischuetz Ouverture. The russian works of half XIX Century belog to the London recordings of 1959 and they also are very rare.
