The world's first SA-CD of Abbado's opera recording "Carmen," which is famous as one of the definitive editions of the 1970s. Excellent recording. New mastering in home country after new mixing from 16ch original analog master
The world's first SA-CD reprint of "Carmen", a masterpiece of Abbado's light and well-balanced sound, including gorgeous singers and an excellent chorus. This performance board with gorgeous singers such as Bercanza, Domingo, and Cotrubas is still highly regarded as a masterpiece among masterpieces that never fades even if you listen to it now. In particular, while there are usually many passionate Carmens, Bercanza's singing, which has a light and well-balanced sound but never loses its Latin emotion, is wonderful. Affinity is also great. In addition, DG's analog recording is in its final stage, and the fact that it is an excellent recording that ignores the complicated settings of the time also supports the masterpiece. Abbado has made several opera recordings before this, but it can be said that this is an opera within an opera that combines several important elements as a board regardless of the work, a masterpiece among masterpieces. It's "Carmen".
This recording from 1977 to the following year was recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra when he was the principal guest conductor in 1975 after his first co-starring in 1966 (he was appointed principal conductor in 1979), but both have already been strong. There is a relationship of trust, which is reflected in the performance. The recording originally originated from the performance in Edinburgh, and was originally supposed to be conducted by another conductor. This process is detailed in the preface commentary by Mr. Yamazaki this time, but it is surprising that Abbado, who was originally a substitute, managed everything in this DG board as a result, except for how the performance itself was. It's a point. It seems that the deep trust with the London Symphony Orchestra was at the root.
In this reprint, we went back to the original 16ch analog master tape in our home country, remixed it, and digitized it with high sound quality. The work was extremely complicated and time-consuming, and it took a long time to reach commercialization. Voice quality and localization are surprisingly clear and clear, and you will notice an unprecedented excellent sound quality with the added benefits of DSD.
