RCA (actually BMG) has just released the first ten recordings in their
new line of hybrid SACD/CD reissues of the famous RCA Living Stereo
classical recordings of the 1950s. I just got them today and they sound
incredible. While not everyone is a fan of this type of music, the
technical aspects of this project from its inception to today should
fascinate most. Here is a little info on the current project and a brief
interview with three of the people involved:
