Moussorgsky The Power Of The Orchestra - Leibowitz
Full Details
Moussorgsky The Power of the Orchestra (Leibowitz) on 200g LP from Analogue Productions: Mastered from the Original Master Tape by Ryan Smith at Sterling Sound and Pressed at QRP
Recorded at Kingsway Hall and engineered by Kenneth Wilkinson, The Power of the Orchestra couples Moussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition with Night on Bare Mountain. It has long been considered among the greatest sounding records ever made. Perhaps most stunning about The Power of the Orchestra are the effortless dynamics, which have been reviewed and raved about ever since the first RCA shaded dog. From the gentle plucks of the strings to the explosion of a full orchestra without a moment's notice...these are jump-out-of-your-seat-type dynamics.
Mastered by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound from the original 3-track master tapes, cut at 33 1/3, and plated and pressed at Quality Record Pressings.
