Gregor Piatigorsky, Charles Munch, Boston Symphony Orchestra – Dvorak: Cello Concerto
85,00 €Add to cartRCA Living Stereo classical LPs — the gold standard for top quality orchestral performance and sound! Part of the Analogue Productions RCA Living Stereo 45 RPM Series! Remastered from the original master tape and cut at 45 RPM by Bernie Grundman Includes 2-panel insert 180-gram vinyl 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings! Few recordings capture the electricity of great artistry meeting great music the way this one does. In this landmark RCA Living Stereo release, the legendary cellist Gregor Piatigorsky joins forces with Charles Munch and the Boston Symphony Orchestra for a performance of Dvorák's Cello Concerto in B minor, Op. 104 that has stood as a reference point for decades. Why does it remain so revered? For one, Piatigorsky's playing strikes the perfect balance between nobility and fire. His tone is deep and commanding, yet his phrasing has a warmth and lyricism that makes the concerto's tender passages glow. Every note feels like it carries the weight of lived experience. Then there's Munch, whose famously spontaneous, almost volatile conducting style matches Piatigorsky's intensity measure for measure. Under his direction, the Boston Symphony surges with vitality-lush strings, blazing brass, and a rhythmic drive that gives the concerto its sweeping drama. It's a meeting of two larger-than-life personalities, captured in the full splendor of RCA's legendary three-microphone Living Stereo process. Collectors and connoisseurs often place this among the very finest of the Living Stereo catalog — not just for the star power, but because it embodies everything the series is about: audiophile sound, inspired artistry, and performances that feel alive, as if the music is being created in the moment.

Davis, Hi-Fi +, Issue 121 "These are the best vinyl releases of RCA LPs I've yet heard." — Jonathan Valin, executive editor, The Absolute Sound Since its original release on LP in the mid-1950s, Fritz Reiner's rendition of the Concerto for Orchestra has stood as the standard against which all other recordings of the work are measured. Reiner's superb control of his orchestra and of Bartók's rhythms and textures is still unsurpassed, even by dozens of subsequent conductors in the digital age. Likewise, the Music for Strings, Percussion, and Celesta shows just what an incredible ensemble the Chicago Symphony was under Reiner's direction. The original 2-track session tapes were used in mastering for LPs and SACDs. Reiner delivers definitive interpretations that set a standard that remains unsurpassed.

Praise for our 331/3 edition series reissues: "These are the best vinyl releases of RCA LPs I've yet heard." — Jonathan Valin, executive editor, The Absolute Sound Violinist Jascha Heifetz, playing with the New Symphony Orchestra of London, conducted by Sir Malcolm Sargent. Heifetz was the leading figure among the extraordinary group of Russian Jews who dominated violin playing in the second and third quarters of the 20th century. As a technician he had no superior, and, of all the artists of his time and later, only two or three could even offer a challenge to his electrifying precision of execution. His diamond-point tone and quick vibrato afforded his playing a clarity of line that some felt was almost too perfect, even cold. Most conductors and other violinists — and audiences — felt differently and a Heifetz concert inevitably drew sell-out crowds.

85,00 €Add to cartRCA Living Stereo classical LPs — the gold standard for top quality orchestral performance and sound! Part of the Analogue Productions RCA Living Stereo 45 RPM Series! Remastered from the original master tape and cut at 45 RPM by Bernie Grundman Includes 2-panel insert 180-gram vinyl 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record Pressings! Praise for our 331/3 edition series reissues: "These are the best vinyl releases of RCA LPs I've yet heard." — Jonathan Valin, executive editor, The Absolute Sound Within the RCA Living Stereo catalog, few recordings capture the balance of virtuosity, refinement, and sonic brilliance as this remarkable pairing of Glazounov and Mozart. At the center is, of course, Jascha Heifetz — the violinist whose name became synonymous with perfection. Here he delivers one of his most commanding and lyrical readings of Glazounov's Violin Concerto, a work that was very much his own calling card. Backed by conductor Walter Hendl, Heifetz brings both dazzling precision and an almost vocal warmth that turns the concerto into a soaring narrative. Many collectors regard this as among his greatest concerto performances on record. The companion work, Mozart's Symphonie Concertante in E-Flat, adds yet another dimension. Joined by the legendary violist William Primrose and guided by conductor Izler Solomon, Heifetz reveals his chamber instincts in a performance that feels both intimate and grand. The interplay between violin and viola has rarely been captured with such finesse, each phrase glowing with personality while maintaining Mozart's classical balance. For classical enthusiasts and collectors alike, this album represents the essence of what made RCA's Living Stereo series legendary: great artists at their peak, captured in sound that has stood the test of time.

Of all his works, Symphony No. 4, is considered by many to have more emotional impact and musical structure then any of his earlier pieces in part due to the personal tragedies he endured while writing this symphonic masterpiece. This important work is performed by the Boston Symphony Orchestra and conducted by Pierre Monteux, the well-known Classical Conductor from Paris, known for the molding of the Boston Symphony Orchestra in the mid-nineteen twenties into an Orchestra who's reputation was known worldwide as having the "French" sound and for being the experts in French and Russian repertoire.

"The original The Power of the Orchestra has been on many 'best recording' lists, and the discontinued Chesky reissue, with Leibowitz and the Royal Phil, made it on HP's Super Disc list. Yeah, this is one of the best RCA Living Stereo DECCA recordings at Kingsway Hall by Kenneth Wilkinson and pristine original copies cost a mint. This is really accessible, power classical music." — Jim Hannon, AVguide.com Recorded at Kingsway Hall and engineered by Kenneth Wilkinson, this record couples Moussorgsky's Pictures At An Exhibition with Night On Bare Mountain. It has long been considered among the greatest sounding records ever made. Perhaps most stunning about Power of the Orchestra are the effortless dynamics, which have been reviewed and raved about ever since the first RCA shaded dog. From the teeny, tiny, itsy, bitsy gentle plucks of strings to the WHAM!! CRASH!! SLAM!! of a full orchestra without a bit of notice. It's heart-stopping, jump-out-of-your-seat-type dynamics. The Power of the Orchestra — a more appropriate title there never was. But to hear it at 45 RPM...Oh! My! God!

Both as a violinist and as a composer, Corelli brought the art of string-playing to heights never-before achieved, exploring new dimensions of dynamics and tonal richness. What makes the Societa Corelli virtually unique among interpreters of Corelli, Vaivaldi and other masters of that period is their style. Their tone production, use of vibrato and other subtleties evident in this performance are artistic, creative and vital music-making.

The album was recorded between 1970 and 1971 at Atlantic Studios in New York City and Criteria Studios in Miami. This is a beautiful album that perfectly mixes both sides of Aretha Franklin's talents — the hard-edged soul singer who first flourished at Atlantic Records in the late '60s, and the artist who was growing even more as a vocalist — really reaching out her wings to more sophisticated material! The record teams Franklin with some of the best musicians of the day, including Billy Preston, Donny Hathaway, and Bernard Purdie — with backing vocals provided by Franklin's sisters, Carolyn and Erma, as well as The Sweet Inspirations. There's a balance here that makes the record one of the deepest that Franklin ever recorded for Atlantic — lots of larger Arif Mardin touches, but also some raw moments that really round things out — on titles that include Aretha's classic take on the Weldon Irvine/Nina Simone tune "Young Gifted & Black," the funky classic "Rock Steady," the wonderful mellow groover "Day Dreaming," the hit "Brand New Me," and the strangely compelling "First Snow In Kokomo."
