Description
The London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Istvan Kertesz, featuring Julis Katchen on piano - Bartok: Concerto No. 3 for Piano and Orchestra, and Ravel: Piano Concerto in G-Major - Recut Records REC-5001 original high-fidelity legendary classical virtuoso stereo lp. Record is Near Mint (like new, possibly unplayed); cover is Near Mint.
When Linn, the turntable people, realized that some of their favorite performances on records would soon fade away into inferior re-issues, they took matters into their own hands.
In the case of Julius Katchen’s fine piano work (especially with Istvan Kertesz at the helm of the LSO), Linn contacted Decca directly to obtain the original master tapes, so that they could re-tool and re-master and capture every ounce of the performances, in a modern high-quality pressing, which you have before you now.
It is quite extraordinary, the Ravel here picked by TAS magazine as one of the finest classical recordings every captured, and this the finest pressing ever made of it. And a wonder it is, first note to last.
Nice!
