SPECIAL AWARD

FINEST ORCHESTRAL DEMONSTRATION LPS

ORCHESTRATIONS ASTROMANTIC-OTAKA-RCA RDCE-6

These two LPs, both from RCA Japan, are the finest orchestral "demonstration" records I have ever heard. One of them is a direct-to-disc, but both of them are stunning. The reason I describe them as "demonstration" is that the music, varied but all "classical" and with orchestral instruments, was recorded specifically for the purposes of sonic evaluation.

The sonics of both are at the very top category, and competitive with any other orchestral record. The first LP consists of strictly shortened, well-known orchestral pieces that you will find in those typical packages which are marketed to people who aren't really serious about classical music, but still want some "classical music" in their homes. The only difference is in the sonics, of course.

Both are very useful tools and have certain sections which are unforgettable. A number of the shortened works are better recorded than I have ever heard them: Such as the famous second movement of Rodrigo's Guitar Concerto (especially the solo guitar), and the even more famous beginning of Also Sprach Zarathustra.

Many listeners may find these records "second to none" in sonics. They are that good. Both of them are highly recommended."

*******************************************

Vinyl is in dead mint condition. What are you waiting for? This Lp is fairly rare and doesn't come up on EBay very often. One of the very best sounding Lps ever in our humble opinion. We've got two backup copies and we love this pure demo disc extraordinaire. Just to clarify in the above review Mr. Salvatore was talking about two separate Lps - the other one is NOT included in this auction. This auction is only for Orchestrations Astromantic.
Shipping is as follows: CONUS: Media Mail rate and Priority Mail is optional and can be user selected at time of check out.
INTERNATIONAL RATES: are by USPS Priority Mail only (no exceptions - only Priority Mail has tracking) and are charged actual cost by weight despite what EBay's shipping calculator says. Please make sure before you bid that you understand the shipping costs to your country. Of course we will gladly combine shipping costs for multiple items won to make it as economical as possible. Please remember that your item's shipping cost is by actual USPS weight. Please wait for us to invoice you before paying as the shipping rates must be corrected and verified first. Generally speaking records run ballpark around $30.00 to ship the first record and about $5.00 for each additional record however each respective country varies in shipping cost depending on distance from the United States. Please wait for us to invoice you first because more than likely your international shipping cost will be greatly reduced from Ebay's shipping calculator once we verify the actual weight and correct and adjust the shipping price.
PLEASE NOTE THAT WE NO LONGER SHIP TO ITALY. WE REGRET ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS MAY CAUSE HOWEVER WE HAVE HAD PACKAGES GONE MISSING THEREFORE WE CAN NO LONGER SHIP TO ITALY.
