Posted Saturday, March 9, 2024 by Andre Great Album. Melody Gardot voice never desapoint. to be a Decca Album the pressing is horrible, the sound still good but phisically the pressing is not flat, and that's very disapointing. hope one day remake all using A.S.

Fantastic

5 Stars
Posted Friday, January 13, 2023 by Jim W I will confine my comments to the sound. I have both vintage 60 year + discs as well as new pressings and new reissues. This recording is noticeably superior in all aspects than any other in my collection (except other releases in this ring series). The vocals are even clearer than when I last listened to a live performance of this opera at the NY Met. BUT, at least the first side of disc one was full of cereal noise until I put it through my vacuum cleaner after which there was but one soft click. I am very glad I jumped on the preorder early.

Worth the price of admission

5 Stars
Posted Saturday, April 4, 2015 by Anonymous Just for the brand new re-mastering of the 1954 mono recording of Respighi Roman Festivals and Church Windows. For all the technological advancements that have taken place since the early 50s, if audio never got any better than what I heard when I put this brand new re-issue mono LP on my turntable, I couldn't have cared less. Stunning mono (and stereo) sound on superb quality pressings as has become the norm for these reissues.

Posted Monday, July 30, 2012 by CADiver Gave me a taste of history, old movie sound track lp from Decca! I barely know how to talk when this movie came out, while it's not like Living Stereo or Mercury Living Pressence or Other classic Decca. This is still a quality recording. Fun to listen to.

Music of the Spheres

5 Stars
Posted Saturday, October 20, 2007 by Jack Lawson R. Strauss wrote great music but was capable of genius. In my opinion, Also Sprach is his masterpiece and despite the stereotypes of German orchestras and conductors Mehta and the LAPO created a partnership which scaled the highest levels. Given the importance of detail, dynamics and the subtle colors of such orchestration the additional bonus of Decca's engineering of this era (in my opinion the ultimate) we have here an issue of very high merit. Just put aside enough time to complete the music as you will not be torn away until the very end. The music is very gripping and Zubin Mehta has grasped a lot more meaning than other performances known to me, even the amazing Karajan recordings.

A Blessing For Equipment Auditioning

5 Stars
Posted Tuesday, March 20, 2007 by Andrew Maher Aspects of this disc are a bit cheesy. It is the one where the narrator says "ping" in one channel, and "pong" in the other. It opens with a steam train running between the speakers, contains the Ceremony of the Keys from The Tower of London, and car racing. There are also several musical excerpts such as Decca/London's famous "Espana" recording that are still used by some equipment reviewers to try out new gear, Solti's 1958 recording of Act III of "Die Walkure" gives us a taste of grand opera, and there is a brief sequence of Ernest Ansermet rehearsing "The Rite of Spring". The popular music of 1958 is probably a bit dated, but the virtue of the disc is that it does provide a series of different musical styles that allow listeners to try out their gear without having to swap records frequently. The recording quality is remarkably good. The pressing had a couple of minor extraneous noises, but was otherwise very silent. Take this with you when audtioning a new turntable.
