[Sir Georg Solti 110th Anniversary of Birth / 25th Anniversary of Death Commemoration][First Press Limited Edition] [SA-CD Hybrid Specification] [Green Color Label Coating] [Slipcase] [Booklet with Lyrics and Translation]
● This major project commemorates the 110th anniversary of the birth and the 25th anniversary of the death of conductor Sir Georg Solti, who led the studio recording of Wagner's masterpiece "Der Ring des Nibelungen"—the first such feat in recording history. The four works of the first-ever studio recording of "The Ring," completed by Solti between 1958 and 1965, will be released between November of this year and May of next year: "Das Rheingold" (November), "Die Walküre" (December), "Siegfried" (March 2023), and "Götterdämmerung" (May). In terms of singers, orchestra, performance, and recording, it remains the supreme and eternal record even more than half a century after its recording.
● This 2022 edition utilizes a DSD master created in 2022 from the original 1958 stereo master tapes. Supervised by Andrew Wedman, formerly of Emil Berliner Studios, the tapes were aligned using Studer A820 machines with Weiss analog/digital converters and a proprietary workstation to record the output. Among the 38 original master tapes—the oldest of which are 65 years old—some required edit repairs or suffered from oxide shedding. Tapes in poor condition were successfully restored by baking them at 55°C for 10 hours, and new mastering was performed at a high resolution of 24-bit/192kHz.
● Mastering was handled by DECCA engineer Philip Siney, who trained under engineer Jimmy Lock. Lock was involved in the original 1964 and 1965 recording sessions and supervised the two previous transfers in 1984 and 1997. For the removal of tape hiss and noise, sophisticated tools such as iZotope RX-9 and CEDAR Retouch were used. These are far more effective and less invasive than previous programs, allowing the brilliant overtones of the Vienna Philharmonic's brass and strings to be heard like never before.
● The Japanese edition exclusively features a green color label coating, a slipcase featuring the original LP jacket artwork, and a booklet with lyrics and their Japanese translations.
