1-23. Maurice Ravel - Daphnis Et Chloe 54:29

Review by David Hurwitz (ClassicsToday.com)

I may be alone in preferring Charles Munch's later recording of Daphnis, from the 1960s, to this classic 1955 version. The remake (last available on Japanese RCA) has even better playing, as well as more modern sound--not that this disc is all that much inferior. In fact, it's still a terrific feat of audio engineering, and Munch's interpretation is just as powerful and committed (and perhaps a bit swifter in the Bacchanal) as it would be later. Given the unavailability of his second effort, you certainly can purchase this with total confidence, and the two-channel SACD brings a touch more vividness to what already was a very fine remastering job. Let's face it: Munch was well nigh unbeatable in this music, and there's no point in quibbling over tiny details. If you don't have this, then by all means don't hesitate. If you do own it, I don't think this latest remastering offers enough obvious differences to warrant trading in the previous release. [1/24/2005]

4-6. William Walton Cello Concerto 29:19

A wonderful SACD... I recently heard the Dvorak live and I found myself comparing that performance to that on this disc.The sound is excellent, with a very wide soundstage that may surprise those not used to hi fi playback. The sense of depth is also fine. The RCA transfer issued in the 1990's was apparently mastered from a protection or safety dupe and suffered from a horrendous tape splice about seven minutes into the first movement; I used to cringe in anticipation of that evil edit and the change in timbre and lurch it caused in the soundfield. I'm glad to say that edit is not in evidence on this transfer. The sense of Piatigorsky being present is enhanced by the three-channel playback and this is the preferred listening mode if you have the proper equipment ... Read more

J.S. Bach: Complete Organ Works - Gerhard Weinberger. CD 12-22 of 22

This new complete recording of Bach's organ works represents the most extensive such project ever undertaken. It comprises not only Bach's authentic works and all of his arrangements but also numerous works of disputed authenticity, some of them in world-premiere recordings. It even includes the recently rediscovered Chorale Fantasia BWV 1128. The selection of instruments - historical organs from Bach's immediate environment in Thuringia and Saxony as well as world-famous Bach organs of great significance from sites such as Groningen, Grauhof, and Trondheim - is also unprecedentedly unique.
