Description
JOHANN STRAUSS JR. -
Emperor Waltz
On the Beautiful Blue Danube
Fritz Reiner/Chicago Symphony Orchestra
RCA ACS-87
2-Track Stereo for "In-Line" heads
7 1/2 ips; 7-inch reel; notes on the back of the box
Please note: for proper balances on playback, all 2-track tapes must be played on a 2-track machine. Playback on a 4-track machine will not give even weight to the channels and may not be satisfactory.
Recorded in Orchestra Hall, Chicago
April 15, 1957
Richard Mohr, producer
Lewis Layton, engineer
These recordings were originally issued on LP in mono only in 1957; the stereo LP and this tape both arrived in 1958. This tape's last appearance was in RCA's 1961 catalog, after which all 2-tracks were discontinued, so this was a short-lived issue.
For comments on the LP issue, see The Abso!ute Sound, Issue #75/76, Pages 176-177
These two waltzes were part of the collection entitled "Vienna" on LP issue LSC-2112. The LP, of course, included other waltzes as well. The other selections appeared on 2-track tape on ACS-63 and ACS-99.
Scarce tape - only the third copy I've ever seen!
The tape is in excellent condition; its box shows only very minor shelf wear.
