Craft Recordings has honored the legacy of Telarc Records by re-releasing four of its most famous titles in their long and storied catalog on vinyl LP for the first time in over thirty-five years. The

LPs being reissued come from Telarc’s initial Soundstream recordings, which were digitalized recordings made on an Analogic MP8016 16-bit Analog to Digital convertor with a three-bit sync pattern and an even parity bit added to form a 20-bit word. These digital recordings were so good that even converted to analog LP, they set the gold standard for how digital recordings were made to transfer to vinyl that stood well into the future.
The four LPs include Robert Shaw and the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and Chorus performing Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite & Borodin’s Polovtsian Dances; Carl Orff’s Carmina Burana & Paul Hindemith’s Symphonic Metamorphosis; Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra performing Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture, Capriccio Italien and Cossack Dance from Mazeppa; and Seiji Ozawa and the Boston Symphony Orchestra with Joseph Silverstein (violin) performing Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons. These four vinyl LP’s will be pressed on 180-gram vinyl. These titles were specifically selected from Telarc’s vast classical catalog because they were the label’s all-time best-selling albums and are exceptionally rare in the LP marketplace today. All four of these LPs have been pressed by Optimal in Germany.
All titles are available for pre-order at the newly launched Craft Recordings web store: https://found.ee/Classical-all-c
