Ravel: Orchestermusik

Limited and numbered audiophile vinyl edition marking Ravel’s 150th birthday and the one-year anniversary of Seiji Ozawa’s death, Deutsche Grammophon presents Ozawa’s recordings with Boston Symphony Orchestra of the composer’s orchestral works on 4 LPs. All recordings have been newly mastered from the original 8-track tapes (apart from 1LP side which was originally recorded on 4 tracks) and mixed by Rainer Maillard and Sidney C. Meyer from Emil Berliner Studios.
 
The audiophile vinyl series The Original Source presents outstanding recordings from the 1970s in a whole new sound quality. The renowned Emil Berliner Studios have remastered and edited the original four-track and 8-track tapes in 100% analog quality (AAA) using technologies developed specifically to produce the series. The sonic differences to the original releases are considerable: greater clarity, more subtleties and improvements in frequency response, while at the same time less background noise, distortion and compression allow for an audiophile listening experience like never before.
