OTOH, the finest capture of piano sound in my library is on a Japanese
45-rpm twelve-inch. The instrument is a Bösendorfer Imperial and
despite the
miking being a bit close, it remains an audio reference in my
library. (RCA
RDC-4, JRL 1-1105 Direct Master Series)
Beethoven's "Appasionata" Sonata (Op. 57) played by Ikuyo Kamiya.
Technically well performed but more bombastic than I like. In short,
musically uninteresting but as audio a proof of principle. Rather like
the Sheffield Drum Disc - except that Keitner makes some real music.
