Description

BALLET MUSIC From The Opera
New & Sealed Audiophile Vinyl Record

Record Label: Classic Records/RCA LSC 2400


Ballet Music from the Opera Music by Verdi, Saint-Saëns, Rossini and Mussorgsky Paris Conservatoire Orchestra conducted by Anatole Fistoulari. Producer: Ray Minshull. Recording Engineer: Kenneth Wilkinson.

Highly collectable release from audiophile label, Classic Records. This title was mastered by Classic Records at Half Speed from the original source master tapes. An all-analog, tube amplification process was used at every step. Classic Records used a proprietary vinyl that guaranteed virtually no surface noise and sonically superior dynamics.

Classic Records pride themselves for releasing each album with the original artwork, LP labels and any other materials which were included with original pressings.

Record is new and still sealed in it's original plastic sleeve. Perforation is completely intact. Corners are sharp, colors vibrant and spine is straight. There are no flaws or blemishes. 100% mint.

Review: This 1960 dynamite recording starts quite gently. The Dance of the Moorish Slaves from Aida is delicate and filigree playing from an orchestra in peak condition. The Paris Conservatoire Orchestra boasted some famous principals (Rampal, included), but suffered a reputation for producing ragged ensemble playing. On this day, though, Rumanian conductor, Anatole Fistoulari, coaxed fabulous performances from the Parisians.

The recording is in perfect harmony with the playing. When the violins reprise the opening melody of Khovanschchina, the great lineage of RCA/Decca recording teams comes to the fore. Here, one finds the happy marriage of beautiful art and brilliant science.
