Souzay - 1956 French Opera arias ( Fabulous performances + immaculate 1986 Dutch vinyl ! )
Grand merci pour le partage de cette belle interprétation. Votre transfert est bien fait.
ReplyDeleteL’effort nécessaire m’a presque épuisé !
DeleteThank you for this rarity!
ReplyDeleteIt's near-bonkers to try editing to acceptability such early Decca vinyl - but I've not compromised the sound.
DeleteOther early Decca that might tempt: 10-inch LX's - Magaloff: Liszt sonata (1951) & Griller Qt: Haydn/Mozart (1952) both not on CD - nor a Schubert song (D300) in a Souzay LX (1957: by that date pressings had improved 'somewhat').
