Description
Beethoven 9th Symphony
Orchestre de la Suisse Romande conducted by Ernest Ansermet
Joan Sutherland - Soprano Norma Procter - Contralto Anton Dermota - Tenor Arnold van Mill - Bass
DECCA SXL 2274 VG/VG+
The LP is in VG/VG+ condition. There is no surface noise to speak of, and very few pops/ticks. On side one there is a repetitive tick near the very beginning which lasts around 1 minute. It is not that loud, and is not always audible as it is covered by the music. Later on the side there are is a 3 rev, a 4 rev and a 5 rev tick - these are quiet. On side two there are two longish repetitive ticks, one is 14 revs the other about 18 revs. Again, these are very quiet. The cover is in EX condition.
I found this to be a very good performance, and the overall sound is really excellent. There are several repetitive ticks that I have already mentioned. They are almost all very quiet and were not overly intrusive, and apart from that the record plays very cleanly, though if you are looking for a mint condition audiophile copy then this isn't the one for you.
This LP comes from a large collection of records owned by a retired music professor that I am selling on his behalf. I do no grade the records visually, I listen to them in their entirety and try to give as accurate description of the condition as I can.
If purchasing more than one LP please wait for a revised invoice before making payment. If you have any postage preferences then contact me as soon as possible to let me know. For UK customers I send parcels 2nd class standard, but am happy to revise this and send them 1st class if preferred, just let me know. For orders over 2kg in the UK courier options are also possible and very economical. For international buyers, if you want to have your LP sent as a registered parcel to be signed for, please contact me before making your payment. On request I am also happy to use a courier service for orders over 2kg which may well be more economical. I will always try to find the best option available, but please ask straight away if you would like to do this.
Please note, I would appreciate payment within 4 days. Owing to my work schedule, the longer I have to wait for payment the more complicated it gets for me to send items on time as I travel a lot. It also makes life a lot easier for me if I only have to make one trip to the post office to post all sold items at the same time. If this is a problem, please contact me straight away so we can work out the best way to proceed.
OWING TO MY WORK SCHEDULE I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEND PARCELS BEFORE WEDNESDAY 13th MARCH
