Svend Asmussen Collection

A series of CD's with Svend Asmussen recordings. The Svend Asmussen Collection project was initiated by Flemming Rahbek and was intended to comprise everything that Svend Asmussen had recorded 1934-1960, chronological issued on 25 CD's. An ambitious project that was never fully realised. Apparently only vol. 1-14 (1934-1950) and vol. 18 (1955) were issued. The first albums were issued on cassette tapes, later also on CDs. The first label was Thora. After vol. 7 Henning Schädler took over, reissued some of the first CDs and continued the series on the Ambia and Swan Music (2) labels.
