Grandios
Noch nie einen besseren Stravinsky gehört. Feuervogel und Petruschka phänomenal. Klanglich leider immer noch ein Desaster (!!!) Achim L. , Germany
Stokowski's Stravinsky
Previous CD incarnations suffered from cavernous and boomy sound. Now HDTT have come up with much improved sonics, allowing you to hear Stokie's fabulous 1957 Firebird and Petrushka in all their glory. One quibble, the track listing gives 12 tracks - 4 for Firebird and 8 for Petrushka whereas there are 15 tracks - 5 for Firebird and 10 for the rest.

Gems rescued from the early stereo era ...
Too bad Stokowski never got around to recording the full Firebird and/or Petrushka. That said, these stellar readings of the orchestra suites will pique your curiosity, perhaps only to give way to a melancholy moment when a listener wishes Stokowski had been turned loose with the Berlin Phl much more often. I've heard this reading in several past editions, starting with vinyl then going to red book CD; but HDTT has done it again ... these readings are as fresh, powerful as the day their tracks were laid down. 1957, sixty years ago, indeed. Bravo! ... and thanks loads.
Sir Thomas and Rimsky-Korsakov - Scherezade -
Dear Musik friends. Sir Thomas have made many great Recordings, Scherazade is one af them. number 2 and 3 is: Strauss Ein Heldenleben and Berlioz: Symphony Fantastiqe plus Ouvertures. HDTT can do the job (EMI Tranfers is a stop gab) So what are you waiting for ??? John Elsinore Denmark.
