What a poor recording!,
By
This review is from: Toccata & Fugue (Dm)/Partita Vn 2-Chaconne (Dm)/& (Audio CD)
This recording is a ADD Mono remastered recording of music recorded from 1947 to 1950. I suppose there is merit in listing to the Stokowski Symphony Orchestra conducted by Stokowski himself. However, I was looking for an excellent HiFi listening CD using current technology and not remastering of old, mono recorded music. Chandos 9259 is a much better recording of some of the same Bach music (certainly not a 1:1 match). Probably the best ever recording of Bach transcriptions is the Chandos recording of Leonard Slatkin's transcriptions.

Beautiful orchestration and Sound,

This review is from: Toccata & Fugue (Dm)/Partita Vn 2-Chaconne (Dm)/& (Audio CD)
Stokowski, a lifelong Bach fan, did fantastic work on this CD. The symphony has the lush sound we have come to expect and the music is both symphonic and yet intimate. Excellent price and on 24 bit technology. A must for bach and Sokowski fans.
