And it's a very exciting, very passionately flexible performance.
Rather wild. I doubt the Lys disc is the ultimate in sound, however.

The soundfountain website is excellent -- everyone interested in
Enescu or, even more, Remington LPs should check it out. I'm grateful
to know about it. Many thanks.
I own a Melodiya LP of this Enescu Tchaikovsky 4 and remember it as
a magnificent and exciting performance. Thanks for posting it. It's a
great pity that not many of his live performances as a conductor have
survived. There is a Schumann 2nd Symphony with Enescu and the New
York Philharmonic from around 1937 that is simply shattering. He was a
great conductor in addition to being great in everything else
musically.

Is there anyone out there who owns the Melodiya LP of Rozhdestvensky
conducting the Moscow RSO in Enescu's First Symphony - it's a truly volcanic
performance of great power. Never reissued on CD?

The pitch problems that some heard in my rather amateurish upload of
Klemperer's Gran Partita on OperaShare was due to my 30-year-old
turntable dying a sad death. As soon as my new equipment arrives, I
can do a (rather amateurish) transfer of the Enescu Symphony (assuming
the LP is in decent shape - I haven't heard it in years.)

Just listened to the download; It's a rousing performance. The recorded
sound makes that oboe solo pretty amusing, but those blasted pizzicato
strings actually work; haven't enjoyed that section for many years. Many
thanks to the OP.
Aside: I had to go to my secondary news server to get back this thread; it's
loaded with junk posts. While I was deleting them my eye was caught by a
subject line saying "i am sometimes reliable, so i fix you." Well yeah,
OK...

I thought it should have been "All your base are belong to us!"

Are you referring to the Philharmonic-Symphony broadcast of January 31,
1937? Program was:
Mozart: Nozze di Figaro--Ov.
Mozart: Symphony #40
Otesco: "De la matei Citire"-- Two Excerpts
Schumann: Symphony #2
I note that there is a CD-R issue of this concert on Disco Archivia 457
Tapes of this broadcast (or portions thereof) have been circulating for
years, ever since "Stan & Vic" copied the disks and released the tapes to
the collector underground.
I happen to have the original transcription disks that are the source of
these tapes, which I acquired in the last few years.

Hi Kevin,
Yes, the Philharmonic performance by Enescu is the one to which I
was referring. You're fortunate to now own the discs. Is there any
thought of transferring them again if you think there have been enough
advances in processing technology to make the transfer better?
Sorry for this tardy reply to your message.

Not at the present. I have about 2,000 16" disks with similar interesting
material, only some of which has been transferred. It may have to wait until
I retire, If I live that long.

Agreed.Ths s one of those I need to keep my eye out for.As some of you
may be aware,there has been a wealth of Melodiya/CCCP Lps on eBay in
the past year or two,with more all the time.It may well turn
up,considering what I have seen of late.

78s,and plan to put up my spare of the Bach Double,he did with
Menhuin ,and Monteux,that this article cites.This article,like much on
this site,is far from complete.It ignores the records issued on
Electrochord,and those recorded for the Sears Silvertone label,and
issued in 1946,as well as 11 years later on Lp,by The Saturday Evening
Post's Hollywood label.

And I also see it on the Venezia label in Japan coupled with Enescu's
own 3rd violin sonata, the Lipatti version (anybody knows the sound?)
