Digital Booklet
|
"... a well filled disc ... the two suites are a very substantial bonus ... playing standards are exemplary throughout. The orchestra clearly enjoyed playing for Breiner and the recording is bright and punchy. Overall this is a worthy addition to the Mussorgsky discography."
- MusicWeb International
Peter Breiner both conducts and orchestrates this exciting performance of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra. These piano pieces have been orchestrated by numerous composers, with the version by Maurice Ravel being the best known. Of his new orchestration featured here, Breiner explains: "I was not trying to recreate Mussorgsky's orchestral sound, but actually to create a contemporary sound. I wanted to create it without using a lot of unusual sounds and to stay within the limits of the traditional symphony orchestra with a substantial expansion in the woodwind and percussion sections."

*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. 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.
