King International in Japan are continuing to release Karajan live recordings but the latest releases are of performances that have been released before by other record companies.

In August, they released CDs of the 1955 Washington concert with the Berlin Philharmonic (Mozart 35th Symphony, Richard Strauss's "Till Eulenspiegel" and Brahms 1st Symphony). At the end of November they will be releasing CDs of two Vienna Philharmonic concerts with Karajan from their 1959 Tokyo concerts (Mozart 40th Symphony and Brahms 1st Symphony in one concert and Schubert 8th Symphony, Brahms 4th Symphony and Berger's "Legende vom Prinzen Eugen" in the other).

King International are also releasing a CD from the same tour of Boskovsky conducting works by the Strauss family.
