It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

RE: Just finished the Oistrakh Bruch and Hindemith

The Oistrakh/Bruch/Hindemith was issued in a deluxe 15 ips 2-track tape by The Tape Project folks. I haven't heard it, but it got a good reception. I own a few of the other Tape Project titles, and they are superb.

Everything depends on the quality of the original recording, and then secondarily on the source used for the transfer to digital. HDTT issued a single title from the early EMI (Columbia and His Masters Voice) stereo recordings that were released on 2-track tapes in the UK. I had an email exchange with the person who supplied the tape used in the transfer. He sent me a one-off CD of experimental stereo recordings done in 1954. Most are snippets, but a complete Till Eulenspiegel with Norman Del Mar and the LSO is included with impressive sound. There's also the 3rd movement of the Brahms Violin Concerto with Endre Wolf, Walter Goehr and the LSO. I'm hoping to get a tape to tape transfer of these experimental recordings, but I would settle for a hi-rez transfer from HDTT. :-)
