Description

Very nice copy of Ida Haendels 1995 recording for Testament Records of Bach's Unaccompanied Sonatas and Partitas for solo violin. The LPs look in NM condition, pristine and shiny. I have only listened to selected movements on each LP as I don't have the time to listen to the complete set. The sound is excellent - clean, no surface noise and barely a pop or tick to be heard, apart from one side (C Major Sonata) where there were some occasional pops - though the record itself looks in fabulous condition. The box is in NM condition, apart from some small residue from a shop sticker on the upper right hand side which I think could be partially removed with the right knowledge of how to do that.  Recorded at the No.1 Abbey Road Studio in 1995 in pure analogue the set comprises 3 180g LPs in a  box set, the notes are printed on the reverse of the box. It's surprising that a violinist of Haendel's stature waited so long to record the Bach Sonatas and Partitas, but it is a tribute to her greatness that Testament saw fit to release her recording on audiophile LPs
This set comes from a large collection I am selling from time to time on behalf of a friend, a former music professor who collected vinyl extensively. Please look at the other items I'm selling and keep an eye out for more gems to come.
For shipping to Europe and Asia, I will confirm exact postage costs before sending an invoice.
