VERY IMPRESSIVE TRANSFER

This is one of the many much-loved Readers Digest recordings from the 1960s recorded in Walthamstow Assembly Hall, produced by Charles Gerhardt and engineered by Decca’s legendary Kenneth Wilkinson. They are not hifi spectaculars, but the production team have succeeded in achieving a natural concert hall balance as heard in an A reserve seat. There is no lack of vividness— “Francesca da Rimini” displays that. However, there is also style and elegance in the Bizet. The recording fitting well with Munch’s conception of the piece. The original discs were pressed for Readers Digest by RCA, using their Dynagroove process that cut the bass and boosted the treble to make the records sound better on cheaper systems. This recording was re-issued by Chesky on vinyl and CD around 1988, and is now hard to get, so this high resolution transfer is therefore especially welcome. Thank you HDTT for making these legendary recordings available, and keep them coming!

Munch is a magician in these performances

This has always been a favorite album from the Readers Digest series of recordings made by Decca legendary recording engineer Kenneth Wilkinson and producer Charles Gerhardt. HDTT has done a superb job in giving us this marvelous recording in rich, full, transparent sound. The outstanding quality of Wilkinson’s 1962 recording is set forth brilliantly. Munch is a magician in these performances. His Francesca da Rimini is perhaps the best ever produced, with large orchestra and large recording venue and emphasized by that deep reverberating gong that comes across enormously well in this transfer. There is delicious madness in the brass, percussion, and gongs whirling through the closing moments. Turn the volume up and let it rip!

What a joy to find this recording here!

This has always been a favorite album from Readers Digest series and the Chesky reissue on LP. It sounds better than ever in this DSD256 transfer -- HDTT has done a superb job in giving us this marvelous recording in a rich, full, transparent new transfer. The outstanding quality of Wilkinson's recording is set forth brilliantly in this release. Munch is a magician in these performances. His Francesca da Rimini is perhaps the best ever produced, with large orchestra and large recording venue and emphasized by that deep reverberating gong that comes across enormously well in this transfer. There is delicious madness in the brass, percussion, and gongs whirling through the closing moments. Turn the volume up and let it rip! Munch delivers Bizet's delightfully light-hearted Symphony in C with lightness, spirit and sparkle in a decidedly excellent performance. But it is the Francesca for which I come to this album.
