Brilliant Classics Special Editions

Mention "Brilliant Classics" and the first thing most people think of are our famous box sets dedicated to a composer, an instrument, a performer or a genre. Some typical examples include the Mozart Edition, the Bach Edition, the Beethoven Edition, the Great Symphonies, the Alfred Brendel Edition and the Russian Archives. The international press has constantly been praising these distinctive editions: the Brendel Edition was awarded Record of the Year by the Sunday Times ("A fitting tribute to an irreplaceable musician") or to quote www.classicstoday.com on the Beethoven Edition: "Considering its high overall quality, completeness factor, and absurdly cheap asking price at around a buck and a half per disc, the Brilliant Classics Complete Beethoven Edition sells itself." The special editions offer great value for money and often include rare recordings, extensive booklets and eye catching artwork.

As this website is still under construction, not all our releases are currently included in the catalogue. In case we cannot find the title you are looking for, please visit the old Brilliant Classics site, which is now available at www.joanrecords.com
