★ Featured project by domestic label Global Culture Agency. Peter Mark's masterpiece, which was difficult to obtain, is back in a new high-quality set. The original master sound source ordered from the ARTS label has been carefully remastered and commercialized as XRCD, a high quality audio format that can be played on regular CD players. The original ARTS edition also had a well-established sound quality, but the most noteworthy point is that it has a wonderful sound quality that surpasses that. The direction of sound creation is an approach that carefully captures what is inherent in the actual performance, and mastering clearly shows Peter Mark's intended performance effects and detailed expressions right before your eyes. It becomes.
★ Mozart is an important composer to Peter Mark. This set includes 10 symphonies and a large mass, making it very enjoyable to listen to. Mark has a larger orchestration for Mozart's later symphonies, and the string instruments, especially the internal voices, are remarkable, and the powerful increments of the same notes are reminiscent of Beethoven's orchestration. At the same time, the balance with the wind instruments is wonderful, and the horns are emphasized more in the scenes where the music is tightened with tutti, and the woodwind solos are made to sing with great richness. It is not a pompous effect, but rather a performance that was made with love for Mozart and how to assemble lively music from the notes written on the score.
★ For example, in ``Prague,'' after the heavy introduction, the first violin enters the main part, and the first violin gently plays a certain syncopated rhythm, the internal voices wavering to create a harmony, and the first violin begins to move. Mark accents it clearly, instantly creating a sense of rhythm that makes the music jump with joy. A little bit of seasoning is really effective, and the fresh surprises pop out in three dimensions. The introduction to No. 39, with its stately, virtuoso slowness, gloriously heralds the beginning of a gigantic symphony. As if in response to this, the finale also gives meaning to the phrases without falling into a rush, allowing us to hear a much deeper expression. It is hard to forget the exquisite beauty of the woodwind instruments, which softly add flowers to the delicate sound of the damped string instruments in the second movement of "Jupiter," and the final movement's fugue is a rare grand performance that lovingly embraces all the themes. will be unfolded. This XRCD is attracting a lot of attention because these performances are visualized more clearly and with unprecedented accuracy.
