AustraliaNot quite authentic
These performances, though considered in the early 60s to employ authentic practises, are today a little on the old fashion side. However, they are performed with great elan, polish, and reverence, while of course the music is nothing short of gold! They are extremely enjoyable readings, and HDTT has plied its usual magic on these wonderful recordings, so I can truly recommend this download.
A very high quality transfer.
I'm most impressed by this CD. Having bought a black vinyl record many years ago, it developed clicks, sticking, etc. & I couldn't find a Cd version of it. But this is a worthy successor to that original record.
