Charles Munch Orchestre de Paris 1967-68 3 SACD TOWER RECORDS JAPAN

Description: Description Charles Munch Orchestre de Paris 1967-68 3 SACD TOWER RECORDS JAPANProduct introduction All recordings with the Paris tube for EMI in Munch's last years are compiled into a 3-disc set. A historical masterpiece has been reconstructed from a musical standpoint, including sound quality. Newly reprinted from the home country original analog master tape. With new Japanese commentary All of the recordings recorded in the former EMI during the year Munch was appointed as the first chief conductor of the Orchester de Paris have been highly acclaimed as performances that remain in the history of classical music. A masterpiece that has been released many times, starting with "Fantastic Symphony" recorded just before the memorable first concert, and recording Ravel's works recorded in the month before his death in 1968. In this project, we reconstructed all 8 gems from a musical point of view, including sound quality, in order to revive them with a new sound. Mastering was performed separately for the SACD layer and the CD layer using a master digitized at 192kHz/24bit from the original analog master tape of the home country. With new Japanese commentary. It is a permanent preservation board. Charles Munch (1891.9.26-1968.11.6) recorded four LPs on the former EMI label during the year he was appointed as the first chief conductor of the Orchester de Paris. The latest reprint edition. The Orchester de Paris was established in 1967 at the request of André Malraux, the French Minister of Culture at the time, and Munch was appointed chief conductor, but unfortunately both were performing in the United States. Munch died in November 1968 in the middle. The expected session recording was only 8 songs, but as you know all of them are gem performances. It is the most important recording in record history, and has been reissued many times. In particular, the representative recordings "Fantastic Symphony" and "Brahms: Symphony No. 1" have been released on multiple SACDs, indicating the high degree of attention as a sound source. "Fantastic Symphony" is the first sound source recorded by both of them, and it is a monumental song that decorated the first song of the debut concert at the Champs Elysées Theater on November 14 after recording. The unprecedented live performance at this time surprised many listeners, including the eccentricity and improvisation of the performance, as the sound source was released several years ago. Although the excitement unique to live performances is tremendous, it is quiet compared to it, but the previous session recording never fades. Not to mention the high degree of perfection, the germination of later live performances can be seen everywhere, so you can see that it was carefully made. Even compared to the two stereo recordings with the Boston Symphony Orchestra for RCA, this sound source with the Paris tube has a unique sensibility and a kind of festive atmosphere that makes you forget that it is a session recording. I feel In that sense, "Honeger: Symphony No. 2", which was recorded one month after the second work, is also a highly tense performance. I do not know the real intention of suddenly including this song (6 months ago, the same composer's Symphony No. 4 was recorded on the Orchester National de Radio de France and on the ERATO label), but Paul Along with Sacher, Munch is undoubtedly one of the most right-wing Honegger performers. The session is held in one day, and the hot performance is exactly unique to Munch. The next recorded "Brahms" is also one of Munch's representative recordings. In this song, which was recorded in January 1968, the month after Honegger, the distance from the Paris tube has been further reduced, and the ensemble has improved. It seems that the recording was made based on meticulous preparation, and the majestic tempo setting and the goodness of its width make it hard to believe that it is a French orchestra (although, in France, German music, including Bruckner, was introduced from an early stage. I've played it a lot). It has become a valuable sound source because it is the only song other than French music left by both. And five of Ravel's works, which were recorded for a total of six days starting about a month and a half before Munch's death, are also excellent. It is a good result to say that it is the climax, and it is no exaggeration to say that this is a performance that approaches the essence of French music. Compared to Cluytens's performances during the time of the Paris Conservatoire, the predecessor of the Paris Orchestra, I strongly feel that this recording heralds a new era, as if it reflects his intention to make a leap forward to the world. Let In any case, it can be said that it is the best performance that collects the best of the French music circle at that time. In addition, the jacket design of this time used the LP that included Ravel and Honegger, which was a memorial board for Munch at the time of its release. In this reprint, as with this project so far, we are reprinting the latest analog master tapes in our home country. Most recently, an imported BOX was released in 2018, and even then, a new sound source that was digitized at 96kHz/24bit was used. On the other hand, this time, for the first time, we have adopted a high-quality sound source at 192kHz/24bit. As a result, I think that you can feel the precision, the expansion of the range of expression, and the improvement of the sound field more than before. The condition of the master tape was also good. Of course, the skill of the mastering engineer is also an important factor. In that sense, this time's reprint was aimed at the definitive manuscript. Unlike the conventional sound source that heavily relies on the master tape and emphasizes the sharpness of the sound source that makes you feel a little biased in terms of balance, it is based on the master tape but adapts to modern high-resolution equipment, and has a musical style. I aim to create a master that stands on the point of view. We applied the maximum process to achieve high sound quality. I hope that this will lead to more people listening to these precious legacies, and to further evaluation. In this series, the SACD layer aims for high resolution and a rich sound field with extended high frequencies and soft nuances, while the CD layer aims for a solid and solid sound with a sense of reality. The potential of the CD itself is also high, so please enjoy it as an SACD hybrid board where you can enjoy the goodness of both.
