This May 1975 recording of Dvořák’s New World Symphony was one of the last to be made quadraphonically by Philips and is specially remixed for this reissue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this release Rainer Maillard at Emil Berliner Studios has used the original, four-track quadraphonic master tape to make a new stereo mix sent directly to the cutter head. This preserves a pure analogue path throughout. The Philips engineers of the 1970s would similarly have mixed the four front and rear channels before cutting but this downmix would have resulted in a two-track stereo copy for mastering, whereas here the lacquer is cut directly from a ‘live’ mix into stereo from the four Quad channels.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seiji Ozawa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45534201938111,"sku":"4871606","price":74.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0504\/9797\/8559\/files\/028948716067_SFSO_Ozawa-Dvorak9NewWorld_3D_3000x3000_a4ba9c68-16a6-4544-998d-ba5a1b93d4a1.png?v=1776838824","url":"https:\/\/classicsdirect.com.au\/products\/seiji-ozawa-dvorak-symphony-no-9-carnival-overture-lp","provider":"Classics Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
