One of the best performances of Gulda's equal temperament, recorded in a session in February 1970, the 200th anniversary of the birth of the last Beethoven Anniversary, by the former West German jazz label MPS. It was released that year as it was, and it was a masterpiece that increased the fame of Gulda who was 39 years old at that time. In Japan, LP was released by Nippon Columbia in 1971. Gulda's high tension and technique at that time, which ran around endlessly while recording in close proximity with a bold touch, is a masterpiece even now. In the CD era, the sound quality was thin, but the CD that was officially released from MPS last time had a reputation for regaining its original sound quality. In this reprint, a new MPS original analog master tape is used, and the latest mastering is done by the famous engineer Christoph Stickel, similar to the reprint method of Berlin Classics that has been released so far. We have taken great care in mastering to maintain the best possible sound quality, so you can enjoy more precise and dense performance than before. In 2020, when Gulda's birth 90 years & death 20 years, Beethoven's birth 250 years, recording and release 50 years, etc., the anniversary overlaps surprisingly, it will finally be released as a high-quality sound board with the best specifications of the package.

still. Since the MPS label was established in 1968 and formed a partnership with BASF in 1971, Gulda's jacket was changed to a full-face jacket for the Beethoven statue, which was the first jacket. However (since BASF withdrew in 1976, Gulda's jacket was the same, but the BASF logo on the right side of the MPS logo on the upper left became a white blank, and sales continued with some changes. After that, it was sold to Polygram in 1983 and moved to the Edel group, which owns Berlin Classics and others in 2014. Furthermore, in 2016, the year after Bach's average law recurred, it became MPS. A reprinted CD was released from the original analog master tape that had been stored, and what was talked about at that time was the same as the average rule (the CD is now out of print).

At the time of this reprint, the master tape was air-fed from the label to the studio of mastering engineer Christoph Stickel who lives in Vienna, mastered in the analog domain, and then digitized as DSD for the SACD layer. Commercialized by using a separate system for PCM for the CD layer. In this project, we have achieved mastering in the ideal way currently possible. The effect is remarkable, it is possible to reproduce the quality left on the master tape extremely faithfully, and mastering and direct DSD only in the analog area bring about a more sound quality effect.
