Description: ●Item TitleESOTERIC SACD ESSG-90283 BEETHOVEN Symphony No. 9 BERNSTEIN VPO PRE-ORDER ●DescriptionCondition:New Bernstein and the Vienna Philharmonic's Beethoven Chikulus.Live recording at the heated Vienna State Opera. ■Super Audio CD hybrid software unique to ESOTERICContinuing with our insatiable commitment to original master sound and overwhelming sound quality improvements through Super Audio CD hybridization.A masterpiece reprint series by ESOTERIC, which has received high praise.This masterpiece, which has been praised as a definitive masterpiece since its release and has never disappeared from the catalog to this day, has been mastered in DSD using technology and sensibilities that have evolved from the original master, resulting in the world's first Super Audio CD hybrid. I did.This time, we will release three titles of great performances and recordings representing the analog era and early digital era, including masterpieces from Deutsche Grammophon, the old Philips, and the old TELDEC, on his SuperAudio CD hybrid. ■Beethoven's total settlement with the Vienna PhilharmonicRecording of Beethoven's complete symphonies began with the 5th symphony in September 1977, the 2nd and 3rd symphonies in February 1978, and the 1st, 4th, 6th, 7th, and 8th symphonies in October and November 1978. After that, No. 9 was the last recording of this complete collection in September 1979. This No. 9 was positioned as the final settlement of the project, so to speak. Perhaps for this reason, both the conductor and the orchestra were extremely enthusiastic about this No. 9, and from the first movement onwards, the performance was truly dense and heavy-duty.The strings extend the note value to the limit so as not to break the tension between phrases, the brass is played strongly without hesitation to exude the aesthetic sense, and the timpani's decisive single stroke reaches a great climax.After the second movement, which contrasts the strong rhythmic main part with a flowing trio, the third movement takes a sudden turn to a slow tempo, and the music score designates it as ``Adagio molto'' (very slowly). It really opens my eyes all over again.The eloquence of the fourth movement's recitative, the sense of urgency before the baritone solo, the exciting march accompanied by the tenor solo and male chorus, and the hymn of "Ode to Joy", which cuts through the song and creates a magnificent double fugue. After that, it descends into the final prestissimo. ■High level of perfection that combines the excitement of a live performance with the precision of a sessionBy removing as much noise as possible from the performers and the audience (Bernstein's growling voice, the sound of stepping on the conductor's podium, the venue noise between songs, and the applause after the performance were also removed), the overwhelming enthusiasm of the performance itself remained intact. ) A common feature of Bernstein's live recordings by Deutsche Grammophon is that the performances are highly complete and can be listened to repeatedly.As usual in opera houses, there should be little reverberation in the venue, but in this recording, the reverberations were probably compensated for in the post-production stage, and there is no audible deficiency at all.Taking full advantage of the advantages of multi-track recording, each part of the solo, chorus, and orchestra is mixed into stereo, preserving the clarity of each part, so even in tutti, you can hear the minute movements of the music in great detail. Another big point is that you can do it.In 2015, it was made into a Super Audio CD single layer, and in 2017 it was remastered with a new remix from the original multi-master, but this is the first time it has been released as an SACD hybrid edition. Masu. For this hybridization, as in the past, we worked without compromise, from the selection of the master to be used to the final DSD mastering process.Especially for DSD mastering, we use "Esoteric Mastering".Introducing ESOTERIC's carefully tuned top-of-the-line equipment Master Sound Discrete DAC and Master Sound Discrete Clock.Also, by generously using MEXCEL cables, he was able to convert the information contained in the original master into a disc with a smooth sound. 【Performer】Guinness Jones (soprano)Hannah Schwartz (alto)René Collo (tenor)Kurt Mol (bass)Vienna State Opera Choir Choral conductor: Norberto Baratsch Conductor: Leonard Bernstein [Recording] Live recording at the Vienna State Opera, Vienna, September 2-4, 1979 [Super Audio CD Producer] Tomoaki Oma (Esoteric Co., Ltd.)[Super Audio CD Associate Producer] Minoru Yoshida (Esoteric Co., Ltd.)[Super Audio CD Remastering Engineer] Shinya Higashino (Esoteric Co., Ltd.)[Super Audio CD Remaster] September 2023 Esoteric Mastering Center, “Esoteric Mastering” System ●Shipping Expedited shipping (FedEx,DHL,Japan Post)We usually ship out your order within 5-10 working days after receiving your payment.The package will arrive about 1-3 week after shipment. ●International Buyers - Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.
