Classique introduces 777 of the most inspiring classical LP covers from its heyday, documenting groundbreaking art work and cover culture that is typical of its epoch. In the same way that an attractive cover lures you into buying a record, Classique entices readers taking them on a journey through the magnificent evolution of record cover art. Ranging from romantic motifs, naturalism, abstract art, psychedelic and surreal experimentation to supernatural artwork and pure unadulterated kitsch, the diverse examples of classical cover design assembled in the book is immense. Compiled by avid record collector Horst Scherg, the cover art featured in this book is taken from his substantial collection and presented in fifteen chapters. Each chapter is dedicated to the stylistic approaches significant to each decade from the 1950s to the 1980s, the variety and characteristic trends for countries such as the US, England and Russia, the different musical genres, the graphic mediums practiced from illustration, poster art and photography and the record companies of the times including Deutsche Grammophon, Decca and Capitol. Classique also gives an overview of record producers with information on their repertoires even including those sought-after record labels for the audiophile classical collector. Because design for music has always served as fertile grounds for experimental work and developments in graphic art, this book is not only for aficionados and creative s but also for everyone interested in visual culture.

Classique präsentiert 777 inspirierende LP Cover für klassische Musik. Die einzigartigen Beispiele aus der Blütezeit des Genres dokumentieren bahnbrechende Cover Gestaltung, die kennzeichnend für ihre jeweilige Epoche ist. So wie ein attraktives Cover zum Kauf einer Platte verführen kann, so lädt Classique den Leser ein auf eine Reise durch die beeindruckende Entwicklung der Schallplattengestaltung. Von romantischen Motiven und purem Naturalismus über abstrakte Kunst, Psychedelik und surrealistischer Experimentierfreudigkeit bis zu nostalgischem Kitsch umfasst Classique eine immense Bandbreite verschiedenartiger Plattenhüllen. Zusammengestellt von Horst Scherg, der als leidenschaftlichen Plattensammler aus einem überaus reichhaltigen Fundus schöpfen konnte, versammelt das Buch Cover Art in 15 Kapiteln. Die Kapitel widmen sich den signifikanten stilistischen Ansätzen der Jahrzehnte 1950 bis 1980, den vielfältigen und charakteristischen Trends von Ländern wie USA, England und Russland, unterschiedlichen musikalischen Gattungen und angewandten grafischen Medien wie Illustration, Poster Art, Fotografie sowie den maßgeblichen Plattenfirmen der Zeit wie Deutsche Grammophon, Decca und Capitol. Classique. bietet zudem einen Überblick über die wesentlichen Plattenproduzenten und ihr Repertoire, inklusive der Label für den audiophilen Klassiksammler. Da grafische Gestaltung im Bereich Musik von jeher wegweisenden experimentellen Arbeiten und Entwicklungen als fruchtbarer Boden diente, wendet sich dieses Buch nicht nur an Plattenliebhaber, sondern an alle, die sich für visuelle Kultur interessieren.
