Description

Yet another example of DG sending over poor material for Ampex to duplicate from. DG takes made in Japan are routinely good, indicating that the Japanese must’ve made it clear to DG that they were going to waste their time with duplications so far away from the master. Too bad Ampex didn’t stand their ground and refuse to release this fine performance with poor sound quality.

Also includes Ravel Piano Concerto in G Major
