"... this recording of Berlioz with his new orchestra is a very good one ... Slatkin’s performance is very balanced ..."
- Audiophile Audition
"Recording of the Month ... I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. You’ll find that both sonically and interpretatively it’s very reliable ..."
- MusicWeb International
"The Big News here is that this recording has excellent sound: not showy, punchy, hi-fi store demo sound, but clean, balanced, warm sound that flatters the performance."
- American Record Guide
Leonard Slatkin conducts the Lyon National Orchestra on Berlioz's remarkable and immensely influential Symphonie fantastique, an autobiographical tale describing a young musician’s opium-poisoned nightmares of jealous despair and fatal justice following the murder of his beloved. Berlioz added a second movement cornet obbligato in a subsequent revision of the score, included here as an optional extra.
352.8 kHz / 24-bit, 192 kHz / 24-bit, 96 kHz / 24-bit PCM and 5.6448 MHz, 2.8224 MHz DSD – 2xHD - Naxos Studio Masters
*Recorded in PCM 96 kHz / 24-bit. Mastered in PCM 352.8 kHz / 24-bit, 192 kHz / 24-bit, 96 kHz / 24-bit and DSD 2.8224 MHz / 1-bit, 5.6448 MHz / 1-bit. 2xHD Mastering: René Laflamme 2xHD Executive Producer: André Perry This album was mastered using our 2xHD proprietary system. In order to achieve the most accurate reproduction of the original recording we tailor our process specifically for each project, using a selection from our pool of state-of-the-art audiophile components and connectors.The process begins with a transfer to analog from the original 96kHz/24-bit resolution master, using cutting edge D/A converters. The analog signal is then sent through a hi-end tube pre-amplifier and (if needed) will be EQ’d before being recorded directly in DXD using the dCS905 A/D and the dCS Vivaldi Clock. All connections used in the process are made of OCC silver cable. DSD 2.8224 MHz/1-bit and PCM 352.8kHz/24-bit and 192kHz/24-bit versions are separately generated, directly from the analog signal.
