Performance: Sonics (S): |
| Well I thought I would never replace my favourite normal CD of this work as Ive had numerous versions like quite a few few others I imagine plus a number of vinyls.The prospects of a Decca 96hz Hong Kong issue was too much even though it only has This one work.Its 38 minutes of bliss.Sonically It is outstanding with just a touch of hifi but the fidelity tone and performance will definitly make you listen and pay attention to a work you probably would just normally put on again as aural wallpaper.Not this version.Probably because this is a cut down sized orchestra so Individual clarity is to the fore.I would also add for the fellas that the artwork for the insert with this lady is also eye candy and something to behold. Wheras Im not at all bothered about DGG leaving the SACD arena If Decca can produce this qualityon 96hz/24 bit then this outstrips plenty of pure dsd Ive got...Though I would knock off a few stars for short measure..Dave

| Yes. This is THE one to have. Short measure, but enthralling performances and splendid PCM sound, far better than many pure DSD recordings. Run out and buy it!

Well I was first hesitating before buying this SACD , but after listening I'm quite happy of my Choice
I got allready some 4 seasons like :Il Giardino Armonico , Carmignola, or Fabio Bondi ...
I think that at the interpretation level of this version is a little bit inferior as those famous one but still at a high quality level and very close to the best one
But at the tecnical point of view the quality is perfect , very transparent,very natural (due to the few player maybe, only 7?)
You got really the impression that the player are there, it is a pity that it is not the case when you see the charm of Janine Jansen!
