The Boston Pops Orchestra conducted by Arthur Fiedler
Analogue Productions' RCA Living Stereo Reissue
Series No. 2, with 25 newly remastered mainstay
classical albums, will delight and astound your
ears with their clarity and warm, rich tone. As
with our first highly-regarded LSC series,
shortcomings of previous editions have been
improved upon ? from the mastering, to the LP
pressing, to the sharp-looking glossy heavyweight
Stoughton Printing tip-on jackets that faithfully
duplicate the original artwork, 'Living Stereo'
logo, 'Shaded Dog' label and all!
Mastered by Ryan K. Smith at Sterling Sound from
the original 2-track master tapes, cut at 33 1/3,
and plated and pressed at Quality Record Pressings
? makers of the world's finest-sounding vinyl
LPs, ? no other editions match these for the
quietest 200-gram platters available.
Easily the most popular conductor of his era,
Arthur Fiedler was classical music's greatest
ambassador since Mozart, and also one of those
rare conductors whose records were not only
successful, but serious profit centers, both for
his orchestra and his record labels.
?The Pops were the popular outfit derived from the
Boston Symphony which he directed for 50 seasons
until his retirement in 1979. Inevitably, the
lion's share of the many discs they made for RCA
were highlights and light classical selections,
but an orchestra this good had no problem
switching to more substantial fare, as this
enjoyable release demonstrates. Prokofiev's 'Three
Oranges Suite' gets played for all its worth, and
if you're partial to the famous 'March', there
are a further five brief but vivid movements to
enjoy. 'Sylphides' is never less then pleasant,
though be warned that orchestrated Chopin does
have a period charm but a high cringe factor!
Liszt's symphonic poems don't get many live
outings now, but performances of two of the best
suggest we're missing out. Friedler has no truck
with the philosophising of 'Les Preludes', but
delivers a cracking performance with just the
right degree of soul. ? ? Amazon.com
