Leopold Stokowski dirigiert das Symphony Of The Air
Der britische Dirigent Leopold Stokowski (1882 - 1977) war Zeit seines Lebens ein begeisterter Verfechter der neuesten Aufnahme-Technologien, und als solcher eine Idealbesetzung als Chefdirigent des „Symphony of the Air“, eines Rundfunk-Orchesters, das 1954 aus dem aufgelösten NBC Symphony Orchestra hervorging. In seinen acht Jahren am Pult dieses Orchesters machte er nicht nur unzählige Live-Radio-Übertragungen mit, sondern auch eine Reihe von frühen Stereo-Aufnahmen für RCA. Um die neuen Möglichkeiten klangtreuer Wiedergabe voll auszuschöpfen, war kaum eine Musik besser geeignet als die prachtvoll orchestrierten Werke Richard Wagners, und man kann Stokowskis Begeisterung für dieses Projekt von 1961 heute noch förmlich hören. Mit einer kleinen Auswahl aus Wagners „Greatest Hits“, vom Walküren-Ritt bis zur Tannhäuser-Overtüre, lässt Stokowski sein Orchester zur Höchstform auflaufen. Klangpracht pur!

Die zweite Reihe der RCA Living Stereo-Neuauflagen durch Analogue Productions mit 25 neu gemasterten Klassikern wird Ihr Ohr entzücken und Sie erstaunen durch ihre Klarheit sowie ihren warmen und vollen Klang. Genau wie bei unserer ersten hoch geschätzten LSC-Serie wurden Mängel früherer Auflagen behoben – angefangen beim Mastering über das Pressen der LPs bis hin zu den glänzenden schweren Hüllen von Stoughton Printing mit von Hand aufgebrachtem Druckblatt (an der typischen Falzung erkennbar), die ein getreues Duplikat der ursprünglichen künstlerischen Arbeit sind, "Living Stereo"-Logo, "Shaded Dog"-Label inklusive!
Gemastert durch Ryan K. Smith von Sterling Sound von den originalen 2-Spur Masterbändern mit 33 1 / 3rpm, galvanisiert und gepresst bei Quality Record Pressings – einem der besten Vinyl-LP-Hersteller – an diese besonders laufruhigen 200g Platten reicht keine andere Edition heran.
Stokowski war der erste Dirigent, der sich zu einem echten Superstar entwickelte. Er galt als eine Art Star der Matinees, ein Bild, das durch seine Auftritte in Filmen wie dem Deanna-Durbin-Spektakel "100 Mann und ein Mädchen" (1937) und, vor allem, als er den unanimierten Leiter des Philadelphia Orchestras in Walt Disneys Trickfilm-Klassiker "Fantasia" (1940) darstellte. Als Dirigent des Philadelphia Orchestra popularisierte er einen völlig neuen Orchesterklang, den man den "Philadelphia Sound" oder "Stokowski Sound" nannte. Sein Fundament war ein üppiger, sonorer Orchesterton und eine ausgeprägte Betonung der Klangfarben. Er leistete Pionierarbeit bei dem sogenannten "free bowing", bei dem die einzelnen Streichergruppen individuell die beste Spielweise für eine Reihe von Noten festlegen und so gemeinsam einen tieferen Klang erzeugen, frei von mechanischen Einschränkungen was zu einem satten, homogenen Saitenklang führte.

RCA Living Stereo Reissue Series No. 2 — 25 newly-remastered classical mainstays!
Analogue Productions' RCA Living Stereo Reissue Series No. 2, with 25 newly remastered mainstay classical albums, will delight and astound your ears with their clarity and warm, rich tone. As with our first highly-regarded LSC series, shortcomings of previous editions have been improved upon — from the mastering, to the LP pressing, to the sharp-looking glossy heavyweight Stoughton Printing tip-on jackets that faithfully duplicate the original artwork, "Living Stereo" logo, "Shaded Dog" label and all!
Mastered by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound from the original 3-track master tapes, cut at 33 1/3, and plated and pressed at Quality Record Pressings — makers of the world's finest-sounding vinyl LPs, — no other editions match these for the quietest 200-gram platters available.
Stokowski was the first conductor to become a true superstar. He was regarded as something of a matinee idol, an image aided by his appearances in such films as the Deanna Durbin spectacle "One Hundred Men and a Girl" (1937) and, most famously, as the flesh-and-blood leader of the Philadelphia Orchestra in Walt Disney's animated classic "Fantasia" (1940). As conductor of the Philadelphia Orchestra he popularized an entirely new orchestral sound known as the "Philadelphia Sound" or the "Stokowski Sound." Its foundation was a luxuriant, sonorous tone and an exacting attention to color. He pioneered the use of "free" bowing, which produced a rich, homogenized string tone.
