Description: Description Evgeny Svetlanov Rachmaninov Complete Symphonies 4 SACD TOWER RECORDSProduct introduction Project for the 150th anniversary of Rachmaninoff's birth. Svetlanov's third and final SACD of Rachmaninoff's complete works! An orthodox reprint by the same members recorded at that time. Includes a new preface commentary (Japanese) by Mr. Sekio Tojo, and a commentary (Japanese) by Mr. Koyoshi Uno. For this reprint, the producer and recording engineer at the time, Mr. Tomoyoshi Ezaki, newly mastered. Limited edition of 700 sets with serial number Svetlanov's third and final Rachmaninoff complete works. SACD with the long-awaited latest mastering. The master describes this composer whom he respects and respects as "It's like the blood that flows from the heart. The melody of the soul that can't be heard anywhere else" (from an interview in Japan). In a session that was recorded in a short period of 6 days, the conductor's majesty, style, passion, etc., all erupted as a tremendous magma. This is the Rachmaninoff monument that Svetlanov will pass on to future generations, who passionately said, "I think this is the best complete work." A new manuscript by Mr. Sekio Tojo and an original commentary by Mr. Koyoshi Uno are republished. With new mastering in 2023 by Mr. Tomoyoshi Ezaki and new equipment such as green label specifications, it is a set that you should put on your table. The 1995 SACD version of the Canyon Classics master by Svetlanov and the Russian National Symphony Orchestra, which can be said to be the best reprint project for the 150th anniversary of Rachmaninoff's birth in 2023, is now on SACD! The recording of these sound sources, which can be said to be a representative recording of this combination, was just after perestroika, and it was the most severe situation for Russian musicians at that time. Not only the Russian State Symphony Orchestra, but also Fedoseyev and the Moscow Radio Symphony Orchestra, etc., recorded by Japanese record companies when they were in a life-or-death crisis. It was a valuable opportunity in the history of records in terms of showing us listeners. It is certain that the various Tchaikovsky recordings left by Svetlanov, Scriabin, and this time Rachmaninoff have become masterpieces that will be listened to for a long time as the master's final answer. Rachmaninoff, whom Svetlanov himself admired in particular, is unrivaled by others for his enormous sense of scale and driving power. Russian orchestras actually played the works of their own composers surprisingly lightly, whereas orchestras in the former West, especially in the United States, often emphasized the melody and played with emotion until that time. On the other hand, even when Svetlanov performed as a guest, in addition to plenty of melodic lines, he always performed with a heavy earth rumbling, especially in this 1995 recording. It is probably because of his strong feelings (in an interview with a magazine that visited Japan, he stated that he had a strong attachment to Rachmaninov. Originally, he was attracted to him through the piano), as well as his unique musicality. . Even Symphony No. 1, which has very few opportunities to perform, has a rich performance that seems to wipe out the evaluation of conventional works. It is in the fulfillment of the number. We can see that this piece, hidden behind No. 2, is actually an important piece that shows the depth of Rachmaninov's richness of expression. It can be said that it is a masterpiece that has demonstrated its true value from any previous board. It is also worth noting that the orchestral works include rare works such as "Capriccio Bohemian", "Scherzo in D Minor", and the symphonic poem "Prince Rostislav". The inclusion of 7 orchestral pieces makes me happy, and it makes sense that it's a 4-disc set. In fact, Svetlanov himself said that he likes most of Rachmaninoff's works, "Symphonic Dances", the last work, is excellent, especially the alto saxophone solo in the first movement. A masterpiece. In particular, Svetlanov's melody invites lyricism. In addition, for this first SACD, Mr. Ezaki, who was in charge of not only the engineer but also the producer at the time of recording in Moscow, performed the latest mastering and high-quality sound, considering the recording at the time of recording. , Please also pay attention to the fact that this decision board-like sound source has been optimized even more. You can enjoy the overwhelming performance that remains in the performance history with the highest sound quality ever. This reprint is the latest reprint by Mr. Hirai of Octavia Records, who originally worked on these recordings during the Canyon Classics era, and Mr. Ezaki, who is credited as a producer and recording engineer, so the atmosphere of the time is fully preserved. At the same time, we performed high-quality sound and mastering using the latest equipment and technology. An orthodox reprint with the most suitable lineup.
