Vinyl: <RCA LIVING STEREO LDS 6065 *ANSERMET* THE ROYAL BALLET: GALA PERFORMANCES* 2 LP
AN ARTHUR SALVATORE 'AS LIST DIVINITY RECORDING'
-The highest honour awarded-
"This is a magnificent (2 LP) album, that should be in every record collection. In effect, it is the "highlights" of all the most famous Romantic ballets, by Tchaikovsky, Delibes etc.
The sound is exceptional in every way, and particularly outstanding in outer detail and dynamic qualities. The sound is also BIG, and the instruments actually seem as large as they are in real life.
The only problem that keeps this set from the very top is a noticeable hiss and veil that both obscures some low-level detail and removes the elusive "alive" quality that only the very finest LP's possess. It is similar to the problem the Mercury-Ravel had. However, the "hiss" is only obtrusive on Side One for some reason. The other 3 sides are quieter, and still retain the desirable qualities.
This is an indispensable album, even for those who normally shy away from "Classical Music"
- Arthur Salvatore
