K2 HD CD |
Numbered, limited edition
This recording has been mastered by the K2 HD format of 24-bit 100kHz, which creates an unbelievable sound surpassing other formats!
The flash and fire of Liszt, the emotional surges of Smetana, the guts and glory of Wagner — all the colors in Stokowski's rhapsodic repertoire are here on display.
The legendary Leopold Stokowski was one of the great personalities of the podium as well as a leading interpreter of Romantic orchestral repertoire. Stokowski's profound commitment to the emotional impact of classical music is captured on Rhapsodies, his most popular Living Stereo.
"Leopold Stokowski's collection of Rhapsodies are painted broadly but with his characteristic fine control, and in sound that is larger than life." - Kalman Rubinson, Stereophile's 'Recordings In The Round' November 2005, pg. 52.
