Description:
Mravinsky's interpretation of Tchaikovsky's Fifth is truly unwavering and rock solid. The more one listens to it, the more one is amazed at the thoroughness of his expression. This performance, with its excellent sound quality, is more than enough for Prokofiev. (Naoya Hirabayashi) This Tchaikovsky and Prokofiev also have excellent sound quality. This is another great effect of the careful digital transfer from the original tapes! Mr. Hirabayashi, the disc demon, said, "Of the 17 different Mravinsky Chai 5 recordings, this disc and the Gramophone 60 years disc are the only ones I need! He is very pleased with this disc and the Gramophone '60 disc. King International
