Analogue Productions' RCA Living Stereo Reissue Series No.2, with 25 newly remastered mainstay classical albums, will delight and astound your ears with their clarity and warm, rich tone. As with their first highly-regarded LSC series, shortcomings of previous editions have been improved upon — from the mastering, to the LP pressing, to the sharp-looking glossy heavyweight Stoughton Printing tip-on jackets that faithfully duplicate the original artwork, "Living Stereo" logo, "Shaded Dog" label and all!
Sensitively accompanied by the "New Symphony Orchestra London", Artur Rubinstein interprets Chopin's first concerto, which he recorded several times during his career. This recording from 1961 in London, conducted by Stanislaw Skrowaczewski, is considered particularly successful with its smooth phrasing and well-dosed tempi.
Mastered by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound from the original 2-track master tapes, cut at 33 1/3, and plated and pressed at Quality Record Pressings, no other editions match these for the quietest 180-gram platters available.
Rubinstein recorded the Chopin Concertos numerous times. This version of Chopin's first Concerto is particularly successful, partly thanks to the sensitive accompaniment of the New London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Stanislaw Skrowaczewski. Tempos are well-judged and phrasing is supple and natural.
