Superb and highly sought-after performance of Beethoven by the acclaimed Barylli Quartet. This record is from an inventory of 1950s Westminster records from a New York City collector. Unusual to find so many of these rare titles up for sale at once! Great clarity and brightness for a record of this age. This LP is a very pleasing listen!
CONDITION:
COVER: VG: Great shape aside for tape on spine and bottom edge (see photos). Some wear to top edge but no splits
LABELS: Side 1— VG+: Mark from an old sticker ~ Side 2— EX.
VINYL: VG+/EX: Glossy with some scuffing and tiny marks. Excellent sound quality, with some slight noise and occasional pops (hence /VG+). Beautiful, dynamic pressing! Best of the bunch, in my opinion.
PLEASE NOTE: Due to pressing practices at the time these early Westminster LPs tend to have noticeable surface noise, even if visually NM. These records are being sold in the condition they were acquired and would likely benefit from a professional cleaning. They are best played with mono cartridges, which will reduce noise. As I do not have a mono setup, I am grading the records conservatively with a stereo cartridge.
