CD Reviews

A stinker
E. A. Getchell | Palma Sola, Florida | 12/16/2008
(2 out of 5 stars)

"This was a bargain purchase and now I know why it was priced so inexpensively...it's a stinker. I didn't think I could go wrong with Karajan and both the Vienna and Berlin Philharmonic Orchestras but this sounds horrible. It's a pity because it's really a beautiful combination of two of my favorite Tchaikovsky works but Romeo and Juliet was recorded in 1946 and Pathetique in 1939 and it sounds that way with lots of hiss, crackles and pops. Making matters worse the ending of Romeo and Juliet is abruptly clipped. I doubt whether I will ever listen to this CD again. I got what I paid for obviously."
