CD Reviews

Listening for faults

Edward R. Berg | Arlington, VA United States | 08/21/2002

(2 out of 5 stars)

"I enjoy Chopin but the sound quality of this CD is poor compared to other piano / classical CDs I own. Certain notes have a buzzing sound that I have learned to listen for. Track 3, Nocturne suffers from it and other selections suffer as well. These Chopin pieces were recorded in the 1980's - maybe the early 1980's digital recording technology doesn't match today's standards."
