Rimsky-Korsakov: Shéhérazade – Noseda (Version #2) (cat. no. SACD193) features Gianandrea Noseda conducting the Filarmonica Teatro Regio Torino. This is the exact same same orchestra, same conductor, same interpretation and same location as the originally released version.

The difference is that in the previous version (SACD148) the DSD recording has been made with three couples of valve microphones, all ancient and original Neumann U47, U48 and M49. This special edition is an Analog Recording that has been made with only two microphones Neumann U47, capturing more acoustics of the theatre.

Producer and Recording Engineer Giulio Cesare Ricci tells us: “In the original release I had two native masters made at the same time: one master is analog (with which I made the Vinyl) and the other master is digital DSD 64. While for this special edition, the native recording is analog made with the Ampex ATR 102 1/2 inch 76 cm/sec analog editing. The analog master was transferred direct-to-DSD 64.”

Both the original version as well as this special edition are available with a 25% discount when purchased together via this bundle.

Rimsky-Korsakov: Shéhérazade – Noseda (Version #1)

Sjoerd Staal — Mon, 08 Jun 2015 00:00:00 +0000

Scheherazade Imaginative orchestrator and supreme colorist, Rimsky-Korsakov, he started the symphonic suite Scheherazade in the summer of 1888, spent in the quiet of a remote village of propitious remote district of Luga, at the time when he had just completed the orchestration of Prince Igor Borodin left unfinished by his friend and colleague, who died the year before. Probably it was the seductive exoticism of that excellent score to fertilise theatrical creativity of the Russian composer. The superb symphonic – it goes without saying – draws inspiration from the tales of the Arabian Nights penetrated in European culture long ago thanks to the fortunate French Galland, according to a taste for exoticism that went spreading exponentially in music but also in painting and more generally in the western custom of the last twenty years the 800 and the first of the new century.

Here is the link to a special version of this same recording, both versions are available with a 25% discount when purchased together via this bundle.
