By Comical Engineer TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Audio CD
This is one of the better re-issues of the DG back catalogue being ADD rather than the later recoded DDD (fully digital). I don't think that this significantly alters the character of quality of this recording, in fact, some of the early fully digital recordings are rather harsh. Note that this was recorded in 1988.

Kubelik and the Berlin Phil do a good job on this popular work. The music is involving and the sound quality is clear and unobstructed. This music simply flows from a good stereo and creates a very relaxing but involving sound.

Highly recommended.

I have other well reviewed versions by smaller forces - Handel - Music for the Royal Fireworks; Water Music and Handel - Water Music (complete) - but this one, in spite of being performed by a large modern orchestra, seems to me to capture the grandeur I am sure was intended, rather better than the precise period performances on offer elsewhere. Ignore the fact that it's from an analogue master, the sound is great.

This is one of those pieces that played in a space without interruptions could easily take you back to the long British summer when reflections in the water showed the sun and scudding clouds, as royalty glide by. Two small problems: One we don't get (nor ever had I suspect) summers like that. Two, royalty seem to prefer bullet proof limos these days. Other than that it does exactly what it says on the label.
