Camille Saint-Saens: Symphonie Nr.3 "Orgelsymphonie" (200g) - LP

Berj Zamkochian, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Charles Munch
Label: Acoustic Sounds, 1956

Camille Saint-Saëns: 3rd Symphony - Berj Zamchokian (org) and the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the direction of Charles Munch

This recording of the Symphony No. 3 (Organ Symphony) by Saint-Saëns is one of the most popular publications from the RCA Living stereo catalogue. To describe you as wonderful would be an understatement. The original 3-track master tapes formed the basis for the production of the LPs and SACDS of the Analogue Productions series of reissues. This record opens us to all the grandeur of the original recording and the precision and passion of Munch and the Boston Symphony Orchestra at Boston Symphony Hall. In this way the whole thing becomes more than ever a sonic blockbuster par excellence, there's no better way!

Reviews
P. Cosse in FonoForum 6 / 93: "Unsurpassed the third of Saint-Saens also appears in the Interpretation by the Boston Symphony Orchestra to have stayed under Charles Munch. You comes powerful and differentiated at the same time, but by no means emotionally underexposed, but not in those dangerous moments as sticky as Barenboim's."
