Eloquence Antal Dorati in London - The Mercury Masters Vol. 2

Experience a significant era of classical music history with Antal Dorati in London - Volume 2. This collection by Eloquence brings together essential Mercury recording sessions captured between June 1960 and August 1966. The set features a wide range of repertoire, starting with the powerful Tchaikovsky's Pathetique Symphony and concluding with the Tchaikovsky Orchestral Suites. Listeners will appreciate the unique sonic characteristics of this release. Dorati's conducting is defined by rhythmic discipline, a sharp attack, and a keen ear for orchestral colour. These performances are presented through Mercury's legendary 35mm stereo engineering, known for its high-definition sound and pin-point detail. As a special addition, this volume includes a rare bonus recording previously issued on Philips. This rare segment features neoclassical works by Julian Orbon, including Cantigas del Rey with vocals by Heather Harper, and Manuel de Falla's Harpsichord Concerto featuring Rafael Puyana. This set is a must-have for collectors of high-fidelity classical recordings and fans of Dorati's distinguished work in London.
