New mastering in the home country from the original analog master.

This is the world's first SA-CD hybrid of the complete collection of Mozart's violin concertos recorded in 1967 by Vienna famous violinist Wolfgang Schneiderhan (1915-2002). Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Brahms and other classical and romantic works of Vienna were at the center of his wide repertoire, from Vivaldi to Henze, but Mozart's Violin Concerto, especially No. 5 The number "Turkish style" is an important work that he has taken up from time to time. This was his first appearance on the Berlin Philharmonic on November 28, 1939 (conducted by Knappertsbusch), and four commercial recordings (1952: mono, 1960, stereo, 1967: Stereo = this recording, 1976: stereo), CD recording from broadcast recordings also remained outstandingly outstanding with five types. Above all, this 1967 edition is a very high-profile performance from the beginning of its release on LP Records. Until the 1960's, he used the revised version of the 19th-century violinist Joseph Joachim, followed by Cadenza, but in this recording he recorded a new version by Christoph-Helmut Merling in 1983. Even before the publication of Mozart's Complete Works, he returned to the original score in all his works, and made all his own cadenza and Aigang (fingerprints). In addition, using the style of the Mozart era of "playing and swinging", the soloists and orchestra perform a concerto in which each part has a dialogue. In other words, he kept the traditional style of Vienna and his personal style, actively adopted the latest Mozart studies at the time, produced a performance that endured the aesthetics of the time, and asked the world in the form of recordings. . Looking over the current Mozart performance 50 years after the recording, the enthusiasm for old instruments and old playing techniques since the 1980s has been settled down, and the style of incorporating modern ideas in modern instrument performance is being reviewed. That's why the revival of this recording, which cleverly combines Vienna's traditional beauty and historical wisdom, is meaningful.
In the production of this series, after maintaining and restoring the original analog master tape in the home country from the beginning, high-quality digitization (DSD) is performed, and the home-label engineer in charge of the home country in a detailed process for this series I spent a lot of time mastering.
