Global Product Type: Stamps; Stamp Type: Message; Message(s): COMPLETED; Years: N/A. ![]() Sentimental Favorites (25) $4.98 As revealed with SONY MDR-7506 Studio Monitor headphones, transfer quality of the contents of VOX's 25 SENTIMENTAL FAVORITES is generally full-range, distortion-free, and with such clarity for example you can hear one musician's regular inhalations on the second cut (BORODIN String Quartet #2). Occasional tracks do reveal their magnetic tape sources, but this white noise is minimal, except for #24 (perhaps it's a multi-generational dub). Only the very last number ('Cavalleria Rusticana') is monaural. Musicianship and editing are another matter, however. Edits: These all obviously fade out before the movement or piece ends: #2, #3, 11 and 18. Technique: The crucial soloist on MASSENET's 'Meditation from Thais' is ever-so slightly sour. On STRAUSS's 'Artist's Life' the orchestra slurs some faster runs. Strings on MOZART's 'Elvira Madigan' render a wooden intro. The anonymous 'My Lady Greensleeves' shows dissonance in left hand chord runs. BORODIN's 'Polovetsian Dance #8' has a few imperfect moments that make you wince. Noteworthies: KREISLER's 'Liebeslied' is positively beautiful as is his 'Schn Rosmarin.' The MOZART Flute and Harp Concerto couldn't be better. TCHAIKOVSKY's 'Waltz of the Flowers' is a standout. Outstandingly captured bass on the MOZART 'Marriage of Figaro' excerpt. The 'Arab Song' from Rimsky-Korsakov shows wonderful spirit. Grieg's 'Wedding Day' has a pleasant airiness. |
