"These records are definitive." - Michael Fremer, editor, AnalogPlanet.com
"These are the best vinyl releases of RCA LPs I've yet heard." — Jonathan Valin, executive editor, The Absolute Sound
The exceptional sound of Analogue Productions' 180-gram 45 RPM LPs is now available for this classic double disc release. Maestro Stokowski is at the podium and Bob Simpson is at the 3-track Ampex recorder to capture the Rhapsodies from Liszt, Enesco and Smetana that give this issue its title. This is titanic sound that will sink most speakers and amps for that matter. A must. The original 3-track session tapes were used in mastering for LPs and SACDS.
