    Vivaldi in London

    Vivaldi In London A Live Double Album Recording

    Performed by Interpreti Veneziani

    A Vivaldi feast! We have decided to create a companion album to our ‘Vivaldi In Venice’. The Venetian orchestra travelled to Air Studios here in London where we created a double LP Direct Cut album.

    At the same time we have made a 24 / 192 double download album. In the studio we recorded the orchestra with a minimum number of valve powered microphones, which have captured the sheer jump factor of these superb musicians.

    We hope you have as much fun in listening to the album, as we had in making it for you.

    CHASING THE DRAGON – Mendelssohn’s Octet – 2 LP Audiophile Demonstration Vinyl

    A unique opportunity to listen to the differences between vinyl cut at 33 1/3 rpm, 45 rpm and half speed mastering, using Mendelssohn’s wonderful music. The orchestra also plays ‘Two Guitar’ by Ivan Vasiliev, which allows you to compare valve and transistor microphones and stereo vs. binural mic techniques. We have evn cut a track sourced from our 1/2″ Studer A820 running at 30ips, so you may contrast the sound of analogue vs. digital !

    Sides 1 to 3 were recorded at 2 bit / 192 kHz using a spaced pair of AKG C12 Omni Mics.

    D2D Live Direct Cut To Vinyl  – Limited Edition – Pressed at Record Industry

    A Direct Cut Recording!

    In order to make the D2D Vinyl recording,  performs each album side live in the studio, recorded via state of the art, all-tube valve microphones, fed to a Neve Desk, and then via a pure analogue path directly to the Neumann VMS80 lathe.

    The brilliantly captured session was carefully engineered, and mixed live, no overdubs! During the performance, the Neumann VMS 80 Cutting head engages the master lacquer (“stamper” used for pressing LPs) and is not stopped until the entire side is complete! The results are amazing! A dynamic album that needs to be heard!

    Live studio recording of pianist John Lenehan’s performance of Beethoven Moonlight and Pathetique Piano Sonatas.
