In Reply to: Anatolyi Likhnitsky - if 78's can sound this vivid - are there more reconstructions of quality? posted by freddyi on June 1, 2002 at 13:51:06:
The recordings are mono and from 1930-1938 but the presence is awesome. There is slight surface noise but it's been minimized to the background. Pieces included are Bach's Suite No. 1 for solo cello, Beethoven Cello Sonata No. 3 and Minuet in G Major and Brahms Cello Sonata No. 2. I was totally shocked at the tremendous sound quality of all the pieces on this disc. By far the best reconstruction of redordings from the 30's I've heard. What a wonderful introduction to Casals since I'd never heard him before!
