2004 release. Ancient orchestral recordings were once considered to be like faded black-and-white photos: barely intelligible, lacking all color. Once Arbiter developed "Sonic Depth Technology" to restore old shellac, it achieved surprising results with pre-mic acoustic recordings. A 1914 disc of
Tchaikovsky
and
Wagner
made by the legendary conductor
Felix Weingartner
had bells and winds as clearly present as on recordings made half a century later with microphones.
Richard Strauss
is heard burning up a Berlin orchestra in 1929 with his
Don Juan
. The mysterious and shadowy
Oskar Fried
's epic 1924 performance of
Beethoven
's
Eroica
symphony contained colors previously unsuspected. The results go against commonly accepted limitations that had been troubling early orchestral recordings. With Arbiter's release, these recordings have become pristinely sharpened and well-defined, allowing one to listen without having to toil over what had once been submerged in a murky blur.
