"Thereís no question that these performances must rank among the most gripping in the catalogue.
Tantalisingly brief chunks that make one regret all the more that Reiner never made a studio recording of a complete Wagner opera. Not only is the playing stunningly disciplined in execution, but Reiner manages to draw an infinite range of colours from the orchestra. Sound quality in the earlier RCA Victor Orchestra sessions is more variable, but it does not detract in any way from the obvious attractions of this release." - Erik Levi, BBC Music Magazine .

RCA Red Seal .5 Series Audiophile pressing.
1/2 Speed Mastered from the original multi-track Master.
Improved frequency response, lower distortion and higher levels
The '.5' Series present the classic RCA Living Stereo Series in an up-to-date Audiophile sound.

Stunning!! The best words to describe this LP are 'Majestic, Triumphant, Powerfull & Fragile' - all at the same time. This LP posesses the warmth and glow of the 'Shaded Dogs' while managing to imcorporate the definition and dynamics of modern disc-cutting techniques. If your system has the power and definition then turn the volume up and be prepared for as close as you can get next to an alive Wagner performance. It's that good!

Each record is washed on a VPI cleaning machine using a proprietary 3-5 agent process which is determined by the needs of the individual record. Each record is then listened to 100% to insure that the posted description is exactly what you can expect to get.
