Description
Mercury SR 90288, Bloch Sinfonia Breve / Peterson Free Variations for Orchestra – Antal Dorati, Minneapolis Orchestra, RFR1, 1. This is NOT a reissue – it is the original 50+ year old RFR pressing. It is one of the rarest and best of the Mercury Living Presence LP's and is ranked #21 on Sid Marks’ list of the all-time best Mercury recordings in TAS: “This is a recording of beautiful definition. The separation of instrumental choirs is outstanding and the dynamics are powerful and wide in range.” The sound is very life-like – big and realistic with pinpoint imaging. The stage is wide and deep with huge dynamics and deep bass. This copy is very close to NM. The vinyl surfaces are clean, glossy and quiet with no tics, pops, clicks or skips – there are only a few very light paper scuffs that make no sound. The vinyl grading is NM. The labels are clean and look new except for except for a couple of very light spindle trails. The jacket and inner sleeve are likewise NM (see photos). In summary, this is a beautiful copy of this wonderfully dynamic golden age recording. Feel free to return for full refund if not completely satisfied.
