"Michael Tilson Thomas' recording of Tchaikovsky's first symphony has long been considered the best because of its 'balletic' treatment of the score. And indeed, there is an element of danceability in his tempi as well as an irresistibly natural flow in his handling of the transitions. Thomas makes the lilting second movement sound like a soulful lullaby, helped in no small part by the richly textured string playing of the Boston Symphony." — Classics Today
The audiophile vinyl series The Original Source presents outstanding recordings from the 1970s in a whole new sound quality. For this, the renowned Emil Berliner Studios have remastered and edited the original four- and eight-track tapes in 100% analog quality (AAA) using technologies developed specifically to produce the series. The sonic differences to the original releases are considerable: greater clarity, more subtleties and improvements in frequency response, while at the same time less background noise, distortion and compression allow for an audiophile listening experience like never before.
On 180g vinyl records and in a deluxe gatefold edition with original covers and lyrics, the copies of this series are released limited and numbered, accompanied by additional photos and facsimiles of the recording logs and band boxes.
