Description(Purchase in Asia and Europe is cheaper) ESOTERIC R. Strauss: Symphonic poem "Don Quixote" / Symphonic poem "The Merry Pranks of Till Eulenspiegel" / Symphonic poem "Don Juan" New Japan Herbert von Karajan (Conductor), Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra Product Features★This product (HybridCD) can be played on equipment that supports SACD playback, allowing you to listen to SACD sound sources. In addition, regular CD playback equipment can play regular CD sound sources.★ Elegant, rich, and powerful - the supreme Strauss world achieved by Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic is now available in the ultimate DSD remaster. ■ESOTERIC's unique Super Audio CD hybrid softwareESOTERIC's classic reprint series, which has continued to receive high praise for its insatiable commitment to master sound and the overwhelming improvement in sound quality achieved by Super Audio CD hybridization. Since its release, these classics have been regarded as definitive masterpieces throughout the LP era, and even in the modern CD era, they have never disappeared from the catalog. They have been DSD mastered using technology and sensibility that have evolved from precious masters, and have been made into the world's first Super Audio CD hybrid. ■A vivid recording that makes you feel as if you are watching a filmThis performance of "Don Quixote" is also the soundtrack for a video that was shot in January 1996 in a separate session in parallel with the Berlin Philharmonic's regular concert.The aim was to create software that could be played at home, and while it appeared to be a regular concert broadcast, in fact the session lasted several days, and the footage was recorded with meticulous camerawork and edited under the supervision of Karajan himself. Furthermore, the audio portion of the video was recorded by a solid lineup of Deutsche Grammophon staff including Günter Hermanns, as well as Karajan's close friend and producer Michel Grotz. The two pieces "Till Eulenspiegel" and "Don Juan" can also be said to be part of Karajan and the Berlin Philharmonic's intimate repertoire.In the former, the chaos caused by the mischievous Till is depicted with unparalleled dynamism, while in "Don Juan," the never-ending longing of a man wandering in search of an eternal woman is poignantly expressed. These two pieces were released in this series as a 1960 Decca recording with the Vienna Philharmonic (ESSD-90149), and it would be an interesting listening experience to compare the differences in record companies, recording techniques, orchestras, and the performances themselves. ■Super Audio CD hybridization in the best condition achievedThe recording was made at the Philharmonic Hall, the home of the Berlin Philharmonic, and the dry, tight sound of the orchestra spreads widely to the left and right, which is unique to Karajan's recording in this hall. The sound is developed based on the expressive and thick string section, with the colorful expressions and precise virtuosity of the woodwind section, and the magnificent sound of the brass section.Both albums were released almost simultaneously on CD and LP when they were first released, and have also been re-released as part of the Karajan Gold Series remixed with Original Image BitProcessing, but this is the first time they have been released as a Super Audio CD hybrid.As with all previous releases, no compromises were made in the process of creating this Super Audio CD hybrid, from the selection of the master to be used to the final DSD mastering process.In particular, the newly developed "Esoteric Mastering" was used for the DSD mastering.We used Esoteric's carefully tuned, top-of-the-line equipment, the Master Sound Discrete DAC and Master Sound Discrete Clock.In addition, by generously using MEXCEL cables, we were able to transfer the information of the original master to disc with a smooth sound.
