Notes
Leopold van der Pals was born to a Dutch father and a Danish mother in St. Petersburg and became a cosmopolitan who counted many of Europe's leading artistic personalities among his acquaintances and studied with Reinhold Glière in Berlin for a few months in 1907. Glière had just written his second symphony and presumably motivated his young pupil to compose his Symphony in F sharp minor, which was premiered with remarkable success by the Berlin Philharmonic. "He already has something to say; he has thoughts and ideas," as the Signale für die musikalische Welt wrote at the time, and in fact more compositions followed, which - without a cramped quest for originality - represented the very best of modern music. Even then the theosophical movement showed van der Pals a path to follow in the future; it's German exponent Rudolf Steiner greatly impressed him, and when Steiner founded the Anthroposophical Society, he espoused this new idea in much of his creative work. His special relationship with nature and it's constant changes led to the composition of works such as the two symphonic sketches Frühling und Herbst op. 14 (Spring and Autumn). This highly atmospheric music of individual character situated between neoromanticism, impressionism, and the ecstatic poems of Alexander Scriabin displays the same remarkable organic power and instrumental mastery that also makes the poetic study of the soul in Wieland der Schmied op. 23 (Wieland the Smith) an absolutely fascinating listening experience.

- i***m (917)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAcademy Records is the best seller of classical LPs in the United States, in my opinion. Even though I live in the Bay Area, I make purchases there several times a year, either via eBay or when I'm visiting New York. Wonderful, very professional staff. This order featured fast fulfillment and shipping, excellent and safe, secure shipment packaging, the records (several sealed) were exactly as advertised, and Academy's prices are always fair. Fantastic experience!Georg Solti ROMANTIC RUSSIA Glinka/Mussorgsky/Borodin - Decca SXL 6263 (#177211273152)
- _***a (554)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseAccurate item description (vintage Opera recording boxed set; on five sides of 3 LPs [one side is intentionally blank], all 5 sides are near mint; box and libretto are also near mint). Very well packed (in stout box, wrapped in plastic and packed with additional cardboard layers and packing). Promptly shipped (the combined shipping is much appreciated). A very good value. Responsive seller communication. A recommended LP seller! Thanks!Maria Callas/Votto/La Scala BELLINI La Sonnambula - Angel 3568-5 s/L (#376023635753)
- m***u (141)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI purchased eight (8) LPs from Academy Records on Tuesday, October 14th 2025; each album set being multiple LP opera recording. They arrived at my door on Monday, October 20th, 2025. They were secured in a strong cardboard box with insulation. Every single one was in perfect condition, and I am playing one of them as I type. The day after the delivery I received a not-inconsequential refund for shipping. I have purchased from this seller before - THEY ARE OUTSTANDING!!!
