Revolutionary in its time, ‘The Firebird’ is a story in musical textures and dynamics perfectly suited to the Mercury technique. Dorati and the London Symphony Orchestra present each nuance in perfect scale and balance. Recorded in London at Watford Town Hall in June 1959 with Schoeps M201 micrphones. Decca Classics presents the Mercury Living Presence Series, a new audiophile series of vinyl mastered at half-speed and featuring precision HD transfers of the original first-generation tapes.
