BERT KAEMPFERT
24-CD-Box “The Bert Kaempfert Decca Collection” zum 100. Geburtstag!
Die einzelnen Alben stecken in Papersleeves mit den nostalgischen Original-Decca-Covers, die zusätzlich zur remasterten Musik das Flair jener Jahre versprühen!
Am 16.10.2023 hätte der große Komponist, Arrangeur und Orchesterchef BERT KAEMPFERT seinen 100. Geburtstag gefeiert.
Dieses Jubiläum wurde in Hamburg mit zwei bejubelten Konzerten in der Laeiszhalle gebührend gefeiert.
Universal Music nimmt dieses Jubiläum zum Anlass, den zahlreichen Fans und allen, die perfekt gemachte instrumentale Pop-Musik mit einer kräftigen Dosis Swing zu schätzen wissen, ein besonderes musikalisches Highlight mit den unverwechselbaren und unsterblichen Kaempfert Melodien zu präsentieren.
“The Bert Kaempfert Decca Collection” versammelt 24 amerikanische LPs in einer attraktiv gestalteten CD Box. Sie enthält zusätzlich zu den kompletten Originalalben mehr als 35 Bonustracks sowie die weltweite CD Premiere des Albums ‚Pete Fountain Plays Bert Kaempfert’, die der Jazz-Klarinettist 1967 in Hamburg mit den Musikern des Kaempfert-Orchesters aufnahm.
Die einzelnen Alben stecken in Papersleeves mit den nostalgischen Original-Decca-Covers, die zusätzlich zur remasterten Musik das Flair jener Jahre versprühen.
Ein ausführliches Booklet mit Linernotes sowie seltenen Fotos erzählt die außergewöhnliche Geschichte des in Hamburg geborenen ‚King of easy listening‘, der mit seinen Kompositionen die Welt eroberte.
Ein weiteres Highlight erwartet Musikfreunde im Frühjahr 2024: “BERT KAEMPFERT AUDIOPHIL”
Die beliebtesten Aufnahmen Bert Kaempferts werden derzeit im audiophilen Dolby-Atmos-Verfahren remastert und im Frühjahr 2024 in optimierter Audioqualität bei Streaming- und Download-Plattformen erhältlich sein.
