Japanese Pressing, Deluxe Digi-pak Packaging, THE definitive Classical Performance on SACD!
Edo de Waart conducts the San Francisco Symphony & Chorus in Edvard Grief's "Peer Gynt" Op. 23, Incidental music to Ibsen's play (excerpts), while Sir Neville Marriner conducts the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields in Grieg's Holberg Suite.
The reissue of classical music masterpieces by ESOTERIC has attracted a lot of attention, both for its uncompromising commitment to recreating the original master sound, and for using hybrid Super Audio CD (SACD) technology to improve sound quality. This series marks the first hybrid SACD release of historical recording selections that have been mainstays of the catalog since their initial release.
Experience the legendary performance in this new Super Audio CD/CD format. Not only for new followers, but also for well experienced followers of these recorded materials. All will be equally impressed by the "soul" hidden within the notes, but never before found in previously released recordings in any format.
