Description:

Title: Classic Expressions
Artist(s): The Not-So-Classical Chamber Ensemble - Richard Amoroso, leader
Transferred from the 15ips 2 track master tape

We are bringing this recording back remastered in DSD256; this recording has exceptional clarity with natural acoustics, an excellent demo recording.

This Direct-to-Tape recording was made using two Schoeps microphones and open reel recording equipment. No compression, equalization or limiting was used during its recording or editing. No splices or edits were made within any pieces. Like all Direct-to-Tape recordings, we recorded using only two microphones with the goal of duplicating the sound of the music as you would hear it at the live performance.
