Yeah, the liner notes mentioned that the audience was made up of a number of students and teachers from the Eastman School of Music. The notes were written by Will Moyle from WROC. It was recorded in 1972.
Xavier, that Dolby thing just keeps coming back to haunt me. I've got to finish that project this year!
Aside from that issue, the performances are all hand picked and overall, excellent. Without a Dolby unit, they sound bright and a little unbalanced but they still have that nice rich tape midrange. I've read that if you don't have a decoder but do have some manner of tone controls, turning the treble down 2dB is supposed to help.
I'm pretty purist so it has to "do not harm" as far as I'm concerned. I really just need to set aside a weekend to devote to nothing but working on this thing. Maybe Thanksgiving?
