Herbert von Karajan, Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra – Adagio (1972) [Japanese SHM-SACD 2011] [SACD / Deutsche Grammophon – UCGG-9035]

Title: Herbert von Karajan, Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra – Adagio (1972) [Japanese SHM-SACD 2011]
Genre: Classical
Format: SACD ISO + Hi-Res FLAC

Sound becomes visible! It pulsates! A quality beyond compare, heard by the world for the very first time. The body employs SHM material, renowned for its exceptional transparency and fluidity. Furthermore, adopting the single-layer (2ch) format that truly brings out DSD’s inherent characteristics, this is the ultimate Super Audio CD series! Whilst period instruments and period performance practice are now mainstream for Baroque music, performed by smaller ensembles, Karajan’s interpretation is richly expressive, fully utilising the singing qualities of a large orchestra. DSD conversion from DG’s analogue master by EBS in August 2011. A Japan-exclusive project.
