Truly beautiful. As far as I can judge, here one hears the fantastics Philies pretty well.
I have never had a chance to hear the Philadelphia Orchestra live or been to Philadelphia. Not to take anything away from the musicians, but there was the Stokowski sound and then the Ormandy sound. Two different conductors with two different styles that both made incredible music.
Philadelphia has had excellent conductors since, but nothing matches the sound that Stokowski and Ormandy both were able to get from this wonderful band of musicians.
@@GlensAudioRestoration Heard them only twice, of which I am already quite fortunate as a French Parisian (once under Eschenbach, terrific in Bruckner's 7th and Messiaen's L'Ascension, and once under Nézet-Seguin in Vienna, terrible, not on the account of the orchestra musicians, but on that of the conductor's allergy to nuance and sensitive phrasing in Tchaikovski's 4th). Naturally, thanks to the gigantic series of recordings, we know, as you put it, the wonderful sound they produced under Stokowski and Ormandy.
@@raphaelfournier8273 I was excited to find a multi-channel SACD of Eschenbach conducting the Tchaikovsky "Pathetique". The Philadelphia sound was fantastic, but the performance, sorry no. I would far rather listen to my Stokowski Hollywood Bowl transferred from 78s.

@@GlensAudioRestoration Yes, obviously.
Glen is dead on in his summary of Stokowski vs. Ormandy.
What's fascinating here in the marvelous Prokofiev suite is what a different point of view ormandy brings to this RCA performance (subtler, at times sarcastic, tender) compared to the earlier more brilliant, virtuosic Columbia
この盤乃至音源は日本でも販売されていて、1970年代に親が購入していて横浜の自宅にあった。中学生当時キージェ中尉を初めて聴いたのがこの音源。ヘッドホンを使って聞くと、「キージェの葬送」の一部が何故か当時ゲーセンにあったクレイジー・クライマーか何かの電子効果音とそっくりに聞こえて、「この作曲家はクラシックの楽器を使って電子効果音を出して曲にしてる！」と相当びっくりした思い出。
I can certainly see the Crazy Climber vibe in the funeral music. My games were Tempest and Frogger. After 40 years I still can't get the Frogger melody out of my head.
