Free Goldberg Variations in 24/96

[Kenneth Horne]

Just listening to the free download - I'm very impressed with the playing. The recording sounds very good to me, too - a little closely miked, but a good representation of a Bosendorfer.

 

Wonder whether I should reduce the level of every track by 6dB?

[Kenneth Horne]

Yes, here it is:

It's not clear how users are playing these 24/96 files.

 

Using foobar on my laptop, there isn't a problem.

 

Streaming over the network wirelessly over an unfair big distance to my Musical Fidelity CLiC, the unit hangs between Vars 27 and 28 (the music ought to be continuous) as the signal isn't strong enough. The simple solution is to join the tracks together.

 

Playing via a USB stick plugged into the front of the CLiC the change-over between 27 & 28 is perfect.

 

PS @goldsdad - thanks for the info, saves my downloading again out of curiosity!

 

And OT - There's a new transfer from LP of an early stereo recording of Schubert Symphony No. 9 (the old No. 7 or the new No. 8 - in other words, The Great - has a symphony had quite so many changes of number?) with the option of downloading as 24 bit flac, free of charge, at:
