Description: Description Carlo Maria Giulini Mozart Requiem SACD Hybrid TOWER RECORDS JAPANProduct introduction The first SACD version of Giulini's first "Moturek" recorded in 1978. A sincere and highly condensed masterpiece! An excellent recording by Bishop and Parker. New and latest reprint from the home country analog master tape. New Japanese commentary and lyrics with Japanese translation Giulini has a re-recording of the 1989 recording on a different label, but this 1978 version, which uses the same orchestra, is highly acclaimed as a masterpiece that captures the essence of Mozart in its natural sound. It is also famous as a masterpiece recording that marks the final period of EMI's analog recording. Giulini was 64 years old at the time of recording, and it is a more condensed performance before reaching the slower tempo of her later years, and it is a point that you cannot miss in that it has a different charm from her later recordings. . For this release, the master was digitized at 192kHz/24bit from the original analog master tape in Japan, and the SACD layer and CD layer were mastered separately. Includes new Japanese explanation and Japanese translation of the lyrics. This is a permanent preservation record. Giulini's Mozart: Requiem may be better known now for its later recording on Sony Classical in 1989. He recorded a lot with the old EMI label until the '60s, and from the '70s to the '80s he recorded more with DG. Many of the EMI recordings from the 1970s were accompanied by soloists, and the recordings featuring Giulini are valuable. The year of this recording, 1978, was a turning point in Giulini's career. This was also the year that he resigned from the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, where he had been principal guest conductor since 1969, and became music director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic. As a result, his recordings on DG increased, and around this year, many sound sources were created for Giulini, who did not have many recordings, including records with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the Ross Philharmonic. Under such circumstances, it is unclear why this recording was suddenly made at EMI, but it is clear that there are many differences when compared with the re-recording board. The biggest difference is in the playing time, which is more than 5 minutes. In his later years, Giulini generally took slower tempos, and although there were many instances where he felt a physical difference more than a sense of time, when listening to his actual performances, it was clear that Giulini's attitude toward his songs remained the same. It also has a strong sense of being solid. Even more than the differences between analog recording and digital recording, or the fact that Giulini's music is more natural and flexible than the difference between the singers (the EMI version has a veteran singer versus a young one), the impression you get from listening to both is strong. it might be. Due to various circumstances, it seems that this EMI version is not being listened to as much as the re-recording version these days, but as a product, ahead of the 110th anniversary of his birth next year (2024), we will release the trinity of conductor, music, and recording. We decided to release it because we thought it was of great significance to reprint the famous performance in high quality. In this series, the SACD layer aims for high resolution and a rich sound field with extended high frequencies and soft nuances, while the CD layer aims for a realistic tone that is pushed out with a solid sound. The CD itself has great potential, so please enjoy it as an SACD hybrid disc that allows you to enjoy the best of both worlds. In addition, new text by Notake Hiyama has been included in the manual.
