Perhaps related to the 22nd anniversary?
I returned to the Maestro's Liszt album as commemoration.

www.amazon.com seem to have excelled themselves here. Can it really be true that Decca have announced a new release for 31st December 2020? I know that record companies plan in advance, but advertising something 9 years before the release date??? Karajan's Decca recordings were with the Vienna Philharmonic, not the Berlin Philharmonic. I thought that he only recorded symphonies 1 and 3 for Decca (not 4). According to www.hmv.co.jp , DGG are re-releasing the digital recordings of the Brahms symphonies on 31st August 2011. Perhaps this is the release that Amazon are trying to advertise.

Karajan's 1st recording of Brahms 2 is with VPO in EMI mono.

Following the mystery Decca Brahms recording advertised by Amazon.com, it is now the turn of www.amazon.co.uk to advertise a surprising Decca recording (see www.amazon.co.uk/Strauss-R-Orchestral-Herbert-Karajan/dp/B005C8VQT4/ref=sr_1_15?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1312583363&sr=1-15 ). The advertisement suggests that Decca are issuing a 5CD box of Karajan's Richard Strauss recordings. As the Richard Strauss recordings originally made for Decca would only fill one and a half CDs (Also Sprach Zarathustra, Tod und Verklarung, Don Juan, Till Eulenspiegel and Salome's Dance), I was wondering how they planned to fill the rest of the box. I suspect that Amazon use "Decca" when they really mean "Universal" (the company that now owns the recordings made by Philips, DGG and Decca).

Edward Greenfield: K always seems to react to the type of recording given him - I tend to think of him as a quite different conductor, Karajan-Columbia, Karajan-DG, Karajan-Decca, or Karajan-Pirate
Osborne, p. 459 (except the last part)
