Ludwig van Beethoven’s symphonies in the highly acclaimed complete recordings by Wojciech Rajski, on vinyl. In their entirety! All the sophisticated tricks and all of TACET’s vinyl know-how are brought to bear here. Thus symphonies 1 to 8 were transferred using the half-speed mastering process with a specially designed filter. With “half-speed”, the music is more slowly, and consequently more carefully, cut into the lacquer. Additionally, in the 5th, 7th and 9th symphonies, the last side has been cut in reverse. This results in tonal gain, especially when loud passages occur predominantly towards the end of the piece. This is because they end up towards the outer edge of the record where there is more space for sampling high frequencies. Simply place the needle on the inside of the record and let it travel outwards. At the end, it lands in a lead-out groove and so won‘t fall off the record. Many thousands of listeners have already tried it with two other TACET LPs (TACET L207, oreloB and TACET L977, Works by Ravel).
