A Tribute To Spain – Espana (Chasing The Dragon – Binatural Recordings)

Debbie Wiseman conducts the National Symphony Orchestra and mezzo-soprano Rosie Middleton for this tribute to Spain. The album includes compositional works by Chabrier, Bizet, and Rimsky-Korsakov. Contains 4 tracks including; Habanera, The Gypsy Song, Espana and Capriccio Espagnol. Using the legendary valve Neumann U47 microphone and plethora of microphones including DPA, plus the famous Decca-Tree set up of three omni-directional microphones, this was a well set up recording. What is very important in this new disc is that as well as producing it on Direct Cut Disc it will also be released on double DSD (5. 6MHz), and for headphone lovers as part of a binaural album using the excellent Neumann KU100 binaural microphone, carefully placed above the conductor. Listening on Sennheiser HP600 cans the 'out of the head' effect of the dummy-head-stereo recording was like being on the conductor's rostrum. Mastered on Stax 009 Headphones.
