[Performance]

berlin philharmonic orchestra

*Berlin Deutsche Opera Chorus

Conductor: Herbert von Karajan

This is a collection of Wagner's orchestral works recorded at the height of Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic (1974). The original recording was made by EMI, and this edition was mastered by Esoteric. This is an SACD hybrid edition. The performance features Karajan's unique dynamic and delicate musical movement. It blends well with Wagner's musicality. The tone of the Berlin Philharmonic was also wonderful, with the mid-bass sounding well and the string instruments singing clearly. You can enjoy the sound of a German orchestra that cannot be heard with the current Berlin Philharmonic. Regarding mastering, it will be compared with the original EMI, Since the Esoteric record has a thicker mid-bass layer and a lower center of gravity, The sound is created to create a heavy and profound atmosphere. EMI's SACD has good sound separation and visibility, so Although it is the same sound source, the impression is different than you would think if it was recorded in a completely different location. Regarding mastering, it depends on each person's preference, I think it's fun to listen to and compare records to find your favorite one.
