KATHLEEN FERRIER Sings Bach & Handel (1978 UK blue boxed Decca label stereo vinyl LP. Originally performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Sir Adrian Boult in 1960, this unique recording added an entirely new stereo orchestralarrangement to a vocal performance made by Kathleen Ferrier only a few weeks before her final performance in 1952. This was achieved through meticulous rehersal and and timing so that the orchestral track synched perfectly with the vocal performance. The result is a far more authentic sound than is typical with more modern stereo remasters of of mono recordings, which tend to by made through manipulation of the orginal tapes, making this probably the best stereo recording of Kathleen Ferrier it is possible to find. In addition, both the disc and the front laminated flipback picture sleeve of this particular example are in mint conditions and ther are even some cuttings of the original press realeases included on the inner sleeve.
