Description
Famous recording in the Columbia Studio 2 Stereo series which because of its sound quality became listed in Harry Pearson’s TAS (“The Absolute Sound”) listing.
This LP is by Louis Fremaux conducting the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra in Ballet Music from “Le Cid” by Massenet. The orchestral pieces are “Le Cid-ballet music”; “Scenes Pittoresques”; and “The Last Sleep of the Virgin”.
It is Columbia TWO 350 with matrix numbers YAX 4247-1 and YAX 4248-2.
Condition of the record (looks hardly played and indeed plays superbly) and cover is excellent with original inner sleeve. Depth and warmth of sound is fabulous and should be in every audiophile’s collection.
