Julius Katchen and Istvan Kertesz & The LSO - Bartok PIANO CONCERTO No. 3 -&- Ravel PIANO CONCERTO IN G MAJOR - Linn Recut 01 - Decca Recording - Swedish Pressing - TAS - AWESOME!
There are pieces of music in any music lover's or audiophile's life that helplessly leave one wasted.
Transported in the listening, it cannot be helped…the grip on your listening chair is not noticed, the absorption of all your senses gladly given, the feel of it all when silence finally comes, that of a great fire having gone out.
Such are the effects of the record before you.
Fact is, the people at hi-fi company, Linn Products, in Sweden, felt this very Decca performance of Katchen's to be among their absolute favorites, and so, they approached Decca, asked for the tapes, went about re-cutting a record utilizing only the very latest, finest cutting gear.
The end result, oh yes, has the shimmer of a lightning bolt from Zeus, the stamp of "everlasting" cast upon it, so alive is it, and natural, in its sounding.
No limiting, no eq, nothing but artists at the ready, together delivering what is so much larger and gracious that any one of them could bring…then gathered again, twenty years later by music lovers who heard the call.
A beautiful audiophile enterprise, among the very, very best, bar none, jacket without fault, record within looks unplayed.
To be treasured.
