Decca LXT 5144 1956 pressing/matrices: ARL2896 -2A / ARL2895 -3A. Recorded: 21-23 September 1955 - West Hampstead Studios. Wet-Cleaned 'to perfection' but Decca must've wiped the stampers with a filthy rag: so mucho editing (again). '1.3' de-click +<1.4dB treble. The covers for LXT2963 (Faure/Francaix) + LM4541 (Scarlatti: NO CD) added below (not transferring those...) NOT ON CD Sleeve-note >>>
Thanks for this recording. I am looking forward to listening to it!
ReplyDeleteHeard it more than once! Some slight patches of 'fizzle' (impossible to eradicate unless the sound was zapped) despite all the editing-time.
DeleteRefined/elegant playing - good sound (got EMG's highest rating). Had intended transferring almost 15 years back.
Wonder why not released on CD? Same situation as LXT5020 (Handel Op.3/Boyd Neel) which I transferred 2008/9..
