Description: Description Pierre Monteux Brahms Symphony No.2 Overtures SACD Hybrid TOWER RECORDS JAPANProduct introductionThe world's first SA-CD of the supreme Brahms, the old PHILIPS sound source of Monteux's last years. A rare masterpiece that combines dignity and compassion is revived with high sound quality! New mastering from the original analog master in the home countryThis Brahms recording at the age of 87 in Monteux is known as one of the best performances of the same song. Although it is basically the same as the interpretation of the recording with the Vienna Philharmonic (Symphony No. 2) recorded on the DECCA label in April 1957, it expresses more Monteux's temperament and desired content, which is exactly Monteux's. It can be said to be a culmination of decades of recording. It was a popular board that recurred many times even in the CD era. For these three songs, a 96kHz / 24bit remastered version was released in the 90's, and the sound source in good condition was used in the previous Tower Planning Edition Vintage series "Montou / PHILIPS Masterpiece Collection 5 Discs". However, this time, for the first time in about 20 years, we have reprinted the new and original analog master tape with DSD Direct. Therefore, you can appreciate this masterpiece with a sound quality closer to that of the so-called master, which has a different dimension than before. You can feel the attention to detail in the sound quality and the atmosphere of the London Symphony Orchestra and the recording venue at that time.The overtures of the two songs are as robust as the symphonies, yet they are masterpieces where you can feel the sense of liberation often seen in Monteux in his later years. The tragic overture was not released at the time of LP, and was first put on the market in the CD era. It is a rare performance that depicts movement and stillness, tension and liberation. Brahms of Monteux, which makes you feel no friction in the flow of music, is a historical heritage that should be handed down for a long time as a masterpiece in the history of recording.In producing this series, high-definition digitization (DSD) is performed after physical maintenance and repair of the original analog master tape in the home country, and a detailed process for this series by a dedicated label engineer in the home country. I spent a lot of time doing mastering work. In the SA-CD layer, you can enjoy high-definition master sound. The CD layer has also undergone the latest digitization and mastering in 2018, so it is different from the sound quality of the conventional board.Work informationMainConductor: Pierre MonteuxOrchestra: London Symphony Orchestra OtherComposer: Johannes Brahms Contents Number of components | 1 sheet SongJohannes Brahms:1.
