Karl Bohm - Mozart: Symphonies 29, 35, 38-41 (1974-80) [2017 SACD Vintage Collection]

A masterpiece of Mozart's symphony collection with the VPO of the later years was newly mastered in the home country from the basic master and assembled into three pieces. All songs world's first SA-CD!

Boehm assembled six Mozart late symphonies recorded with the Vienna Philharmonic in his last years, and two orchestral pieces into three pieces. The last year's Boehm left many recordings, mostly on the Vienna Philharmonic and DG labels, all of which have been popular with many fans, especially in Japan, as a loving performance. In addition to the styles up to the 60's, Boehm's music, which was softer and deeper inside, was recorded in its original atmosphere by DG at the peak of analog. The Mozart Symphony started in April 1976 with Nos. 40 and 41, recorded in March 1979 with Nos. 38 and 39, and recorded DG recordings at the end of June 1980 with Nos. 29 and 35. At the time, he was 85 years old (Digital recording of the ninth, the last recording with DG in November of this year, released in PROC1992). At the time of recording in June 1980, DG had already been dominated by digital recording, but this recording was recorded by conventional analog recording. For this reason, in this assembly, all the original home country analog master tapes were directly digitized at the latest 192kHz / 24bit for this reproduction, and masters were produced. In the SA-CD layer, you can hear the sound of the Vienna Philharmonic at that time, which reverberates in the reverberant Musikvereinsar. The attention to detail of the boom, the control of the sound and the rich musicality are unique to the boom of this time, and the amount of information and the suppleness of the horn and string instruments in particular will defeat the ears. Even at the CD layer, you can enjoy the core sound of each instrument and the sound of unity with a firm pyramid balance. The last art of Boehm is finally revealed by the world's first SA-CD.
