100 Fiedler Favorites [box Set]

For 50 years, this great conductor and the Boston Symphony Orchestra brought classical music to the masses with their Pops concerts and recordings. This 7 disc boxed set features 100 of their best loved pieces from their top-selling RCA label LPs. From classical masterpieces to works by 20th century composers such as Leroy Anderson, and from rousing military marches to pop hits of the day, it's all here in brilliant stereo sound.
