REFERENCE RECORDINGS Elgar: Enigma Variations/Vaughan Williams: The Wasps/Greensleeves [VINYL]

A Magnificent New Symphonic Recording! A New Symphonic Tourdeforce From The Kansas City Symphony! This Colorful, Beloved English Music Has Been Captured In Brilliant 200Gram Halfspeed Mastered Lp Sound By Grammywinning Engineer Keith O. Johnson. The Kansas City Symphony Garnered Tremendous Critical Acclaim For Their First Project On Reference Recordings, Incidental Music For The Tempest By Sullivan And Sibelius (Shakespeares Tempest, Rr115). Their Second Release On Rr, Brittens Orchestra, Received A Grammy For Best Surround Sound For Both The Engineer And Producer, As Well As Rave Reviews Everywhere! (Brittens Orchestra, Rr120 Is Now Unfortunately Out Of Print). We Are Thrilled To Work Again With Conductor Michael Stern, The Son Of Famed Violinist Isaac Stern. Now In His Eighth Season As Music Director, The Kansas City Symphony Has Been Much Praised For Its Remarkable Artistic Growth And Development Since His Tenure Began. He Is Also The Founder Of The Iris Chamber Orchestra In Memphis, Tennessee, And In Addition To Rr, Has Recorded For Sony, Hyperion, Denon, Arabesque And Naxos. Producer David Frost Has Won Grammy Awards In 2005, 2009 And 2011 For Classical Producer Of The Year. He Has Produced A Large Roster Of Stars And Grammywinning Titles. We Are Most Honored To Work With Him Again On This Project.
