And the guy who rediscovered these miraculous works.
Fine sound, esp. when you consider they were made in the 1930s.
The link takes you to the latest and probably best reissue.
Follow Ups:
The Casals recordings on vinyl sound fine, not distant. I don't know if anything got done to them on the CD release. I heard them on a Quad 33/303 combo with Bowers and Wilkins speakers, and while the cuts don't have the fine detail of a later tape recording, they have presence and warmth.
I did borrow the Casals from the library many years ago and did enjoy it but I always been looking for best sound and performance and the one that I preffer now is Gendron.
I have a few already inclu Ma,Maisky, Fournier (very nice) but the Gendron is the one that I could settle with if I had only one.
I don't like the distant miking in that recording. Sounds as if the listener is far back in an empty hall.
In my system it sounds very natural and tonaly excellent.
I found over the years that these suites can sound very different from
system to system????
