Philips Digital Classics: Mozart Symphonien Nr. 39 & 41 (Sir Colin Davis)

This product is a classical music recording featuring Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Symphonies No. 39 and 41, performed by the Staatskapelle Dresden under the baton of Sir Colin Davis. It was released under the prestigious Philips Digital Classics label, which was a hallmark of high-fidelity recording technology in the late 20th century.

The Philips Records label has a complex history of ownership. Originally founded by the Dutch electronics giant Philips, the record division became part of PolyGram. Following a series of mergers and acquisitions in the late 1990s, the Philips Classics catalog was integrated into the Universal Music Group (UMG). Today, while the Philips name is synonymous with its Dutch heritage, the music catalog is owned and managed by UMG, which is headquartered in the Netherlands and largely controlled by French conglomerate Vivendi and other global investors. This specific CD was traditionally manufactured in Germany, known for its high-quality optical disc pressing plants during the era.
