High Quality 24/96 DVD & 24/192 DVD-A Hybrid Digital Audio Disc (HDAD) - Audio-ONLY DVD!
Recorded on Oct 14th and 15th 1999 as part of the same sessions that produced Shostakovich Symphony No. 5, the first in the Classic Records Presents series of recordings. The multi-Grammy winning Elite recording team of Marc Aubort and the late Joanna Nickrenz extract a fantastic recording of the legendary warhouse composition which is a staple of the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra and Maestro Pavel Kogan's repertoire. Recorded at the famous Festival House concert hall in Salzburg, Austria, this performance is slightly faster in pace than many other interpretations which builds a tension that brings new light to the orchestral nuances that Korsakov so carefully crafted.

The Len Horowitz / History of Recorded Sound specially modified 1551, fitted with brand new playback heads matched to the revolutionary playback electronics was stationed at Bernie Grundman Mastering in Hollywood. With Len Horowitz running the playback machine and Bernie Grundman mastering from the three track 35mm tapes, Classic Records has been able to capture the legendary sound and performances DIRECTLY FROM THE 35mm MAGNETIC FILM through an "ALL TUBE" tape playback system and at 24 bit resolution and 192 kHz sampling rate for use in both the two and three channel presentations included on both the DVD Audio and DVD Video sides of the two sided DVD-10.
