Direct to Disc Excellence
5 out of 5 stars

This vinyl release's direct to disc LP is the finest I've encountered featuring a classical violinist and pianist. The instruments sound as if you're experiencing a live performance, surpassing any recording I've heard, including other direct to disc works like those from Chasing the Dragon. The second LP consists of regular recordings, which are decent but not exceptional. However, the outstanding pressing quality from DG truly shines. Unlike some other DG releases, there are no manufacturing flaws. I'm thrilled to have found such a superb copy.

This classical violin and piano LP, recorded direct to disc, is the finest vinyl I've ever encountered. The instruments sound so lifelike, even more so than other direct to disc records, like those from Chasing the Dragon. The second disc, a regular recording, is decent but not exceptional. However, the pressing quality by DG is outstanding, with no manufacturing flaws that sometimes plague their releases. I'm thrilled to have found such a superb copy.
