One of the reference recordings of Schubert's Trout Quintet is the interpretation by star pianist Emil Gilels, three musicians of the legendary Amadeus Quartet (Norbert Brainin, violin; Peter Schidlof, viola; Martin Lovett, cello) and Rainer Zepperitz, double bass player of the Berliner Philharmoniker. The five musicians harmonize perfectly with each other as equal partners and deliver an interpretation of the work that is as spirited as it is differentiated.
For its 125th birthday, Deutsche Grammophon is releasing legendary recordings with highest sound standards: The new audiophile vinyl series The Original Source presents outstanding recordings from the 1970s in a whole new sound quality. For this, the renowned Emil Berliner Studios have remastered and edited the original four-track tapes in 100% analog quality (AAA) using technologies developed specifically to produce the series. The sonic differences to the original releases are considerable: greater clarity, more subtleties and improvements in frequency response, while at the same time less background noise, distortion and compression allow for an audiophile listening experience like never before.
The copies of this series appear on 180g vinyl records and in a deluxe gatefold edition with original covers and lyrics. They are accompanied by additional photos and facsimiles of the recording logs and band boxes, and an article explains the exact technical background. Due to the high demand, an unnumbered reprint is now being produced.
