德布西-小提琴與鋼琴奏鳴曲 SACD

Remastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio

"This is perhaps the most exquisitely natural recording ever made. All in all, this Wilson record is a triumph of the analog recording art." — International Audio Review

David Abel, violin. Julie Steinberg, piano. Perhaps the most transcendent of David Wilson’s brilliant recordings, this remarkable album of solo violin accompanied by piano comes as close to putting the two performers in the listening room as any ever made, writes The Absolute Sound, of Sonatas for Violin & Piano.

Recorded on Wilson’s Ultramaster Recorder, built by John Curl, and using a spaced pair of Schoeps microphones driving vaccum tube electronics, the recording has a close perspective that heightens transparency and engagement as well as wonderfully capturing the beautiful tonality of Abel’s Guarnerius violin and Steinberg’s Hamburg Steinway without exaggering their size.

"The duo performs these works as if they are one." — The Absolute Sound, July/August 2013

這張Wilson Audiophile頂尖發燒古典黑膠是1987年出版，錄音地點Mills College Concert Hall，錄音座採用Revox A77家用型錄音座，不過帶速是30ips，已經是最快的帶速了。麥克風也是Schoeps立體麥克風，錄音師當然就是David Wilson本人。

出版已過三十年，當年的母帶要復刻SACD和黑膠唱片，有一定困難，原始母帶如果有受損，能修復的話，聲音也會有一些損壞。

這張發燒專輯，二手CD價格好幾千元，而Analogue Pruductions的復刻很成功，音響效果自然、空間寬闊飽滿，旋律交錯美的像一首詩，也像一幅唯美珍貴的風景畫，如果你想擁有一張非常好的古典發燒音樂SACD，這張專輯將會是你最好的選擇。
