Description
Very hard to find original pressing. Reiner has a strong personality and is better coupled with young soloists in concerto recordings. These are top-tier performances and recordings of two great late-romantic works for piano and orchestra. Liszt side receives perhaps the best string sound from Chicago and the Rachmaninov is not far behind. Both are very exciting performances by Byron Janis.
Producer: Richard Mohr
Engineer: Lewis Layton
Recording location/date: Orchestra Hall, Chicago/23 Feb., 1959; 2 Mar., 1957
Issued: 1961
Record condition: EX+/EX- (S.2 has some hairlines that causes occasional light ticks in 1st Movement of Rachmaninov. The TAS listed Liszt side plays fine.)
Cover condition: NM-
Stamper: 5S/3S shaded dog pressing
Note: I'm a collector, not a dealer. The reason I'm selling is to downsize my collection. Every record I offer was hand-picked based on its merits on music, performance, and sonics (not necessarily in that order!). I will list recording credentials such as producer, engineer, venue, date, etc. as I believe as an educated buyer, these will offer crucial info for an unfamiliar record to make a buying judgement. Hope you'll find this useful!
