Mastered by Willem Makkee!RCA Living Stereo — the gold standard for top quality orchestral performance and sound!
Jean Martinon leads the London Symphony Orchestra for this recording of compositional music by Borodin and Rimsky-Korsakov.
One of the best U.K. Living Stereos with very good dynamics recorded at Kingsway Hall. Borodin's Second Symphony is coupled with Rimsky-Korsakov's Capriccio Espagnole. This record is notable for its fine, lively performances. Midband transparency, detail, dynamics and texture are very good, especially in the first two movements of the Borodin.
