In Reply to: RE: Great to know. Downloaded but out of town and can't listen. posted by jdaniel@jps.net on February 20, 2017 at 18:19:28
jdaniel thank you for this. I am indebted to you already for your introduction to the HDTT transfers last year.
May I add one recommendation? The Ansermet Nutcracker. I bought a DSD64 download and was at first, not exactly dismissive, but not that impressed. However the download more or less coincided with the return of my loudspeakers after a rebuild with a brand new pair of tweeters. They just cannot have been burned in when I first listened to it as it knocked me sideways when I heard it last weekend. Very familiar recording which I have owned for the past 30 something years but it never sounded as good as this.

Thanks! I initially felt a little awkward recommending a business that may or may not be legal. But quickly got over it. : )
I had the Ansermet Nutcracker on Lp and liked it a lot, except for the strings being a touch light in the big lyrical moments. But I love the Suisse Romande's charming woodwinds throughout--piece sounds freshly minted.
Ansermet's Swan Lake has the same pluses.
I wouldn't get too concerned about legality. When I played that Nutcracker at the weekend it was in the company of someone who is concerned with copyright and repertoire for one of the majors. He asked what the source was and just said in a relaxed way "Oh, all PD* then". Had he been concerned believe me I would have known about it.* Public Domain
