Brahms: Symphonies No. 1 and No. 2 Concertos for Violin and Cello new sacd

Description: I am Japanese seller. Product A collection of stereo recordings of Brahms by Ancel and the Czech Philharmonic. The clear sound brings out Ancel's unique musicality in detail. The original analog master tapes from his home country were newly converted to DSD for this reissue. The world's first SACD! A collection of four stereo Brahms pieces recorded by Ancel with the Czech Philharmonic for the Supraphon label, and Beethoven's Leonore Overture No. 3, the only stereo recording of Beethoven's recordings for the same label, on two discs. This performance has been reissued many times, and has been described as a warm Brahms that pursues meticulous detail based on Ancel's characteristic relaxed musicality. Although Supraphon's recordings are probably to blame, the general evaluation so far seems to be that the music is simple yet sincere. With the clearer sound quality of this reissue, the familiar music will be transformed with a more in-depth interpretation in addition to the conventional one. When he first became the principal conductor of the Czech Philharmonic, he struggled with the technical aspects and communication with the orchestra members, but through repeated training and care, he built a close relationship with them and acquired a functionally excellent tone, mainly for the string instruments. Because the original recording was clear, this new reissue allows you to hear Ancel's music in detail.Brahms' Symphony No. 1 was also performed during his only visit to Japan in 1959, and it is a human performance of Brahms that clearly shows Ancel's elegant storytelling ability, despite its profound content. It is said that the performance at that time made a great impression on Japanese audiences, surpassing that of Karajan and the Vienna Philharmonic, who visited Japan at around the same time. A review of the concert at that time also wrote that this performance allows you to feel the dignified and noble sound tradition of Europe, which is being lost. It is also said that during their visit to Japan, they donated relief money to the areas affected by the Ise Bay Typhoon.Symphony No. 2 was recorded about a year before Ancel went into exile, and even at this point they had built an extremely good relationship that could be described as a honeymoon period. This piece is inherently intricate, and it is a piece that Ancel's strengths are easily displayed, with a bright and open sound that stays in your mind. This reissue clearly shows that this is one of the best performances of this piece. The double concerto with Suk and Navarra is a well-coordinated chamber music performance, characterized by the interplay between Suk's violin, who was only 34 years old at the time but still had a strong presence, and Navarra, who was 52 years old and in the prime of his life, and the eloquent sound of the orchestra in the background. ・Number of tracks | 2・Total recording time | 02:22:06・Track list | [Tracklist]＜DISC1＞1.
