[78-L] Stravinsky Le Sacre Columbia Masterworks MM 417

[davidham]

I don't know of a tombstone edition, but I have a copy of ML4882, which
couples Stravinsky's 1940 NY Phil Sacre with the 1946 NY Phil Firebird Suite
recording (omitting the "connecting interludes" unique to the so-called
"Third Suite."

Anyone else try to transfer this set? Very difficult; even apart from the
fact that it's a dub and the laminated pressing isn't friendly, the
recording itself seems a bit sub-standard -- muddy and yet highly variable.
Side divisions, too, make no sense, though they were cutting 12" records
from 16" masters.


Has this ever been reissued? If there was even a tombstone LP of it I'm not
aware of it. The 78 sets are reasonably common -- I have three of them.
