gửi em, Tháng Chín ạ!

Try to remember the kind of September
 When life was slow and oh, so mellow
 Try to remember the kind of September
 When grass was green and grain was yellow
 Try to remember the kind of September
 When you were a tender and callow fellow
 Try to remember and if you remember
 Then follow, follow.

 Try to remember when life was so tender
 That no one wept except the willow
 Try to remember the time of September
 When love was an ember about to billow
 Try to remember and if you remember
 Then follow, follow.

 Deep in December It's nice to remember
 Although you know the snow will follow
 Deep in December It's nice to remember
 The fire of September that made us mellow
 Deep in December our hearts should remember
 And follow, follow, follow...

54 Mozart Overture Don Giovanni

„Wagner, the magician, has made the orchestra disappear.“ (Georg Solti) However, this new recording goes one step further than the master, with his unusual stage design in Bayreuth. With the removal of „orchestral and vocal commotion“ (Carlos Kleiber, in the studio during the mixing of his TRISTAN recording), the listener is able to hear the very essence of the work, which suddenly has „much more of an inward effect “ (CK). Here, in the RING PIANOS PROJECT, the music is once again liberated from the effects of orchestration. „The result is uncanny, drawing you in with a seemingly magical series of harmonies and notes to produce a deeper and more intense experience“ (Klaus Hiemann, Studio Engineer for Carlos Kleiber, speaking about this recording).
Thanks to Cord Garben and Thomas Hoppe for the tour de force. Thanks to Steingraeber for the concert grands; Franz Liszt and Richard Wagner were not mistaken. Thanks to our puristic sound engineer Johannes Müller and mastering guru Christoph Stickel, on behalf of all audiophile Wagnerites. Thanks to Dynaudio for the monitors, on which only true gold glitters. And thanks to everyone who who will fall for this recording in Wagner Year 2013. Never before has there been a Ring like this.

See, he smiles in the shining light.

Wilfried Ehrenholz and Jan Geschke, Producers

CD with 11 tracks (Rhinegold & The Valkyrie) will be available from January, 8th, from selected Dynaudio HiFi dealers worldwide and via Amazon. Check www.dynaudio.com

Philosophy: to record the ensemble of the two special full-size concert grand "Franz Liszt"-pianos as purely as possible with the highest quality standards and the minimum technology possible: two sphere microphones as poly-directional microphones, two wide angles as direct sound microphones for each concert grand. The grand piano microphones go directly without stopover into the pre-amplifiers/converters of the Nagra equipment for the shortest possible signal path to recording. The sphere microphones are specially pre-amplified using Sonosax PreAmp. The microphone signals are recorded on separate tracks in 96 kHz / 24 bit resolution. This means the mix chosen at the recording venue can be refined even further in mastering and made even more transparent and balanced.
