ROYAL BALLET: GALA PERFORMANCES / ANSERMET / Orig 1st Ed RCA LD 6065 COMPLETE

Darbyncoates is pleased to offer what has been described by many as the most sought-after Classical Music release of all-time:

Ernest Ansermet ?– The Royal Ballet - Gala Performances

THE VINYL :  VG+ :  All four sides of these 2 LP's are in the same general VG+ condition. They each retain much of their original gloss, with some light sleevewear, and some light hairline marks. There are no deep marks.

The shaded dog red labels are bright and clear with no spindlewear evidence.

Here are the Stamper numbers, in Side 1-4 order:

3S / 1S / 1S / 1S



THE COVER :  EX+ :  The Cover is all original as issued, and has been exceptionally well-stored over these decades.  It has the "book-style spine sleeve" that fits into the outer cover.

The outer cover is made of a tightly-woven fabric material with some minor fabric fraying on the lower right rear corner (about 0.5"- I think you can see it in the photos). The front image is in great condition.

The inner "book-style" sleeve with its wooden spine is in fine shape, except for some minor wear on the rear portion of it (the portion that slides into the outer cover, and rests against the inside of the outer cover's spine - see photos).  The wooden portion of this inner sleeve (that faces out) has no damage.

The 24 page Libretto is a beautiful work of art, with its colour drawings and black & white photos. There are 2 small tears on the bottom portion of the front page, but it is otherwise in fine shape. The spine is intact, and has no missing pages.

Included are the 2 original " Soria Series" audiophile record sleeves, with a small amount of age-related yellowing visible on the off-white coloured paper.

RECORD GRADING DESCRIPTION:

THIS RECORD IS SIGHT-GRADED ONLY UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT, ACCORDING TO THESE DEFINITIONS:

SEALED: RECORD IS WRAPPED IN PLASTIC & UNOPENED.

NM-: RECORD HAS LITTLE OR NO INDICATION THAT IT HAS BEEN PLAYED.

EX: MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE (LIGHT SCRATCHING/PAPER SCUFFS), BUT IN ALL A RECORD THAT HAS BEEN WELL-CARED FOR.

VG+: LESS CARE THAN EX, LIGHT SCRATCHING OR SCUFFING IS MORE EXTENSIVE. STILL VERY PLAYABLE & WILL LIKELY PROVIDE A QUALITY SOUND.

VG & BELOW: WHILE PLAYABLE, THIS RECORD HAS BEEN AROUND THE BLOCK. OBVIOUS SIGNS OF WEAR & SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TO BE IN A LOW GRADE.  A RECORD GRADED BELOW VG MAY HAVE A VALUE BASED UPON ITS RARITY OR UNIQUENESS.

WE  RECOMMEND THAT YOU CLEAN THIS RECORDING BEFORE PLAYING. RECORDS THAT ARE  DECADES OLD CAN ATTRACT & ACCUMULATE DAMAGING FOREIGN MATERIAL THAT REDUCES SOUND QUALITY. THIS IS NORMALLY EASILY CORRECTED WITH A GOOD CLEANING.
