Classical Court From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here. |

Todd feels very strongly that he hears pitch correction quite readily in many modern recordings. I don't. Wondering how many of you feel one way or the other on the subject. I have been communicating with Stephan Flock who was the recording engineer and post production engineer on Yuja Wang's recording of Rach III and Prok II. If anyone cares to give that recording a listen and chime in on what they think they hear in the way of pitch correction and other DSP it might be interesting to find out what was actually done
I can say first hand that the piano was in bad shape, sounded pretty dull and colorless and was prone to drifting out of tune. I can also say the hall was bright and hard sounding, there was substantial imbalances between the different sections of the orchestra, particularly the woodwinds. and there was a mess of audience noises.
The CD bared little ressemblence to the original live concerts in terms of sound quality.
When Stephan gets back to me I will share whatever he is willing to share on how he achieved what is IMO a pretty dang good sounding recording.
