Welcome to ReDiscovery: classical recordings of the past refurbished as limited-edition compact discs and free high-resolution unencrypted 320kbps downloads.

We are the premier source for otherwise unavailable performances by some of the most celebrated musicians of their time, as well as memorable work by artists all but forgotten today.

With the release on CD and streaming services of Dorati’s Haydn and Mozart, we have withdrawn our transfer from reel tapes and LPs.

DG has issued Steinberg’s Command recordings of the Beethoven symphonies. It’s the best representation these performances have ever been given, not perfect but close to it. You can purchase the set at Amazon and other retailers; the entire set can be heard on streaming services including Apple Music, Primephonic, Qobuz etc. For that reason our Beethoven/Steinberg transfers have been withdrawn. Also RD 135, music of Miklós Rózsa, has been withdrawn; it was issued with a license for 100 copies and that total has been reached.

Our website is now part of the 21st Century and has been revamped for easier viewing on mobile devices. The slideshow of 'musical mysteries' is drawn from our new, expanded Flickr and Google Photos albums of LP/tape cover art. And speaking of musical mysteries, if our remastered performances from the Basic Library of the World's Greatest Music have intrigued you about the anonymous supermarket series of the late 50s, check out this site from Gary Sanders; it has a very thorough aggregation of information about the Basic Library and its brethren.
