Charles Munch / Boston Symphony Orchestra / Berj Zamkochian – Saint-Saëns: Symphony No. 3 (A Stereo Spectacular) [Stereo] (Classic Records 45 Series Single-Sided 45 RPM Quiex SV-P Edition)

(AAA) — Lacquers cut from the original analog master tapes by Bernie Grundman at Bernie Grundman Mastering.

Note: This is a 3-track recording, and these 3-track session tapes were the source of this reissue. Bernie Grundman Mastering has a custom console that can mix a 3-track tape live down to 2-track stereo during the mastering/lacquer cutting process.

An organ lover, Bernie Grundman confided that this is the recording he has been waiting for to remaster since we started the Classic Living Stereo reissue series. This performance of the Saint-Saëns Symphony No. 3 (Organ Symphony) is Grundman's favorite Living Stereo and it shows in the effort he put into the remastering. To say that it is incredible might be an understatement. Cut directly from the 3 track master for the first time ever reveals all of the glory of the recording and the precision and passion of Munch and the BSO in Boston's Symphony Hall. It doesn't get any better than this.
