CD ReviewsThe "wrong" Bernstein performance.... Hannibal | Los Angeles, CA USA | 10/31/2006 (2 out of 5 stars) "Do NOT be fooled, as I was, in thinking that Sony here is refurbishing Bernstein's legendary 1959 performance of the Shostakovich Fifth Symphony with the DSD process - similar to what BMG/RCA has done with the wonderful SACD reissues of some of their greatest performances in the 'Living Stereo' series.
No, whereas the date of this recording is interestingly nowhere to be found on the CD, front or back, this turns out to be the 1979 performance Bernstein recorded while on tour in Japan, and which in no way approaches the incandescent 1959 performance, which being 20 years older, COULD and SHOULD have benefited from the new DSD technology. But go figure... For shame, Sony.... " |
