Michael Stern - Saint-Saens: Symphony No. 3 'Organ'

Product No: AREF 1514
Available: BackOrdered
Category: 45 RPM Vinyl Record
Label: Reference Recordings

5 Stars
Posted Saturday, September 30, 2023 by Anonymous Very good fidelity, quiet surface, and and moving performance. My SVS sub shakes the room with the pedal notes; didn't know vinyl had such low, powerful frequencies! Highly recommended if you like this music. One needs a good low frequency system to appreciate the power of this performance. Otherwise, just a good, clean, orchestration and balanced organ. Again, recommended!

Posted Thursday, August 19, 2021 by scott baxter I had such hopes, but this is a very noisy record. Far too many pops and audible grit throughout both disks. I always wash a brand new record, and re-washing made no difference. The record was put through a degritter cleaner and it made no difference. I bought a second lp set and it sounded just the same. This is wasted money. I have a near 40 year old Antal Dorati/London Symphony recording by London Digital and it is so much more quiet.

Apart from the abysmal surface, this 'read' of the score is rather more relaxed than I think it should be, but we're now talking about matters of taste. Overall, it's too languid, lacking attack on certain passages that should literally shock the listener. Both the Bernstein and Dorati led recordings do a better job in this respect.

Overall I'd say this is a very problematic recording that had superb potential, but that is squandered by the rash of artifacts scattered across the surface of both disks.

Impressive but too noisy

Posted Friday, September 6, 2019 by Mike Very nice performance, very dynamic and full of fine timbre! Surface or other noise too pronounced nothing I would have expected from such a modern analogue recording.

Absolutely Stunning!!

Posted Sunday, September 4, 2016 by Al Webb This just may be the most life-like, transparent analogue LP I have ever heard in my 40 plus years of listening to music. I couldn't believe the level of resolution, dynamics and natural timbre of this recording. Even if you don't like chamber music you owe it to yourself to listen to this recording. Music-making at the highest level. Congrats to the recording and producing team and especially to the Janaki String Trio. Absolutely Stunning!!

Great sound.

Posted Saturday, February 21, 2015 by Arturo C This is a great "impress your friends" record. First class performance and superb recording. It does not have the presence of an original Sheffield D2D, but it will let you show off your stereo system.

Just stunning!

Posted Monday, September 1, 2014 by Tom D This box is just stunningly beautiful. Of course, the music is known but I think this box set is the definitive version. The artwork is amazing, the attention for detail, the finishing, I am a very difficult person but this one deserves 5/5 for the first time in my collection... Thanks
