MUSIQUE DE LA GRECE ANTIQUE -
Harmonia Mundi HM-1015 – French Pressing –
UTTERLY AWESOME! -
Recommended by TAS
This is a musical and audio triumph. From maestro Gregorio Paniagua comes this ancient disc among few, honored on every single audiophile/music lover list there is.
And rightfully so.
The noise floor here is so very low, it will immediately tell you how "noisy" your Rca Living Stereo favorite is, and will eat-for-lunch that FR1 Mercury. I know, this record ate mine.
From the very first moment you play this wonder, you will be aware, not so much of players and instruments, but of a space. Oh mercy, yes...one that suddenly appears right before you, alive, almost breathing, and fully able to transport you to its place. Time and again, I have seen it, audiophiles with their jaws dropped, and only capable of doing one thing when challenged by such alive, state-of-the-art sound:
They laugh.
Please note, too, this is the favored early press release, in the "Acropolis" gatefold jacket, in very fine shape: Laminated cover without fault, record inside is near mint.
I dare say, one of the finest records on the planet.
For other fine records, TAS picks and hard-to-finds, please see my complete list of offerings here on eBay.
Shipping and handling is $5 for up to 5 LPs shipped within the States. Internationally, $15 via airmail for the first LP, $3 each thereafter. (Canada is half that.) Boxes over 4 lbs., add another $6, because First Class is no longer available at that weight, just Priority Mail. Note, too, boxed sets of LPs require more postage.
