Prokofiev Classical Symphony, 1st movement

[KtCalvFlt]

If I'm not mistaken, it seems you are asking for opinions on the 'sound quality' and not the orchestra's level. So addressing what is your question, I give it an A+ for sound clarity. Would you have any suggestions on making VIDEOs more clear? All of my videos turn blurry after uploading them even though the sound remains ok. Thank you so much! PS: Your video (photos) are nice too.

if you go to position 0.54 secs, and again at 1.03 you should hear the bassoon arpeggios quite clearly, I certainly do..

That is one example.

Maybe you are listening on computer loudspeakers that are not intended for serious listening.

Sorry...I rarely comment if I don't like a selection. You asked about the sound content....WOW...at times this sounds like a big mish-mash.....and aren't there any BASSOONS in this orchestra? I strained to hear any bassoon, and I could barely imagine that indeed there was a bassoon. The entire piece was, to me, a big disappontment. I just heard a great arrangement where every single instrumental entrance was clean and heard...a very dull example of this great piece! Sorry.

The strings are...... sloppy... O_o

i'm using this piece for my advanced higher music dissertation. Couldn't find the score on the internet so thank you for uploading the audio on here :D

[Joebzzz]

yeah the strings suck

[budjibird]

the sounds good, i like this version better than karajan's. but it seems that at some parts the strings aren't quite in tune... =(

comments on the video? I truly believe it's great. As far as interpretations goes, it's pretty lovely, evidently more lovely than karajan's ones.

Sound is there too.:):) SO good job:)

Comment on CNSTR quality by Czech Music Direct, quote:

'I have to say that you have produced some of the best sound ever from the Festival Hall. The Prokofiev is an award winning performance and recording!' unquote.

Further quote on 'Gramophone'

'I felt as if I were sitting in row 6 or 7 at the Royal Festival Hall, very nice'

I have posted this video for the audio content, and would be pleased to see comments on the recording quality, the video is not important - it's the music that counts.
