Sibelius / Beethoven - Violin Concerto / Romances for Violin: Original Source Series (180g Vinyl LP)

Sibelius / Beethoven - Violin Concerto / Romances for Violin: Pinchas Zukerman and Daniel Barenboim Reissued as Part of the Original Source Series on 180g LP from Deutsche Grammophon: Pure Analogue Mix, Cut from the Original Tapes at Emil Berliner Studios, Pressed at Optimal

In the early 1970s, Pinchas Zukerman and Daniel Barenboim were regarded as two of the most exciting young musicians of their generation. Their joint recording of Sibelius's Violin Concerto, Op. 47, and Beethoven's Romances for Violin and Orchestra Nos. 1 and 2 with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, captures the extraordinary artistic energy of that time in exemplary fashion.

The two works were newly remastered and cut for this release for the first time from the original 1/2 inch, 4-track tapes.

The audiophile vinyl series The Original Source presents outstanding recordings from the 1970s in a whole new sound quality. For this, the renowned Emil Berliner Studios have remastered and cut the original four-and eight-track tapes in 100% analog quality (AAA) using technologies developed specifically to produce the series. The sonic differences to the original releases are considerable: greater clarity, more subtleties and improvements in frequency response, while at the same time less background noise, distortion and compression allow for an audiophile listening experience like never before.

On 180g vinyl records and in a deluxe gatefold edition with original covers and lyrics, accompanied by additional photos and facsimiles of the recording logs and tape boxes.
