Description
In the height of cold war, only a handful of Soviet musicians are allowed to travel to US. All of them represent the cream of the crop to showcase the superiority of the Soviet artistry. Kondrashin is certainly such conductor from Russia. He must have received royal treatment by RCA team as his recordings on this trip rank on the very top of their Living Stereo era. The xylophone in the Kabalevsky piece jumps to meet you right from the get-go for this sonic treat. Still very decent sound from this later incarnation.

Note: I'm a collector, not a dealer. The reason I'm selling is to downsize my collection. Every record I offer was hand-picked based on its merits on music, performance, and sonics (not necessarily in that order!). I will list recording credentials such as producer, engineer, venue, date, etc. as I believe as an educated buyer, these will offer crucial info for an unfamiliar record to make a buying judgement. Hope you'll find this useful!
