First I have to say that William Walton is not in my first "top-ten" prefered composer but I'm mind-opened and curious of all music (in the area "classical")
The English is not my native language, I'll be brief. About the recording quality this is the best choice for the two symphonies, especially ... more |

Recorded in a cavern ? The sounds are melted in an acoustic too much harsh and reverberant. The orchester seems too far (The percussions and brass seem closer than violins and violas !). The soundstage is narrow (too far). The bass are boomy.
The interpretation of De Vriend don't please me (what a ... more |

A very good and dynamic performance of this symphony but I have to say that I have 16 SACD "RCO Live" and this one is the worst for its recording quality !
The orchester seems too far, in a "railways station" global acoustic. Compared to some of the most recent RCO I have (for example the 8th with ... more |

English is not my native langage so I'll not make a review of this SACD but it deserves more than previous revievers ranks for my taste (however 11/13 recommend it), and it is not quite fair for this SACD. |

Yes of course, I spoke on the "technical" side of the recordings. But it's the same for me about the performance. ... more |

The quality of the recording (microphones, placement, room acoustics) = 99.95% of the final result.
The difference between DSD and PCM or DTS HD MA = 0.05%. Nobody is able to hear a difference. But shhh ... I'm politically incorrect. ... more |
