Rimsky-Korsakov Scheherazade ansermet

Pathetic. Bought the DSD256 but didn't get the other format links as promised. Should have been straightforward. They never respond to my communications. Weeks now. Need to do a whole lot better guys!

Yes,but...

Considered purely in isolation, this is a decent enough recording of Rimsky's good ol' warhouse, in excellent early Decca sound. But that's not how we judge oft-recorded classical pieces. Taken in a broader context, this is easily outclassed - in both sound and performance - by the classic Beecham/RPO/EMI and Reiner/CSO/RCA recordings. So those would remain my recommendations. Why buy fish paste when you can get caviar?
