I ordered the SACD because of the Toccata, which I on a sampler CD from Carpenter had already. Something strange was here the dynamics: the very quiet passages sounded a bit strange, as dimmed denominated pretty monstrous. This impression is now with the SACD blown away, even though (or because) of the dynamic range is larger here again. At the same time one perceives the much finer resolution sounds and thus the subtle game of Carpenter, this even at the loudest passages.
The SACD is incorporated perfectly. The absolute precision game Carpenters - even in the most complex and fastest passages he plays every note clean and well-considered - is rendered as clean on the SACD. Both resolution and space are at the highest level.
Sure, a little openness to Bring while listening already. Who sacred sounds is expected to be disappointed.
Who could as I simply listen carefully without expectation, which easily pass the same: you have to follow the game will cast a spell and is afterwards astonished with what revolutionary self-evident here an old instrument is dusted. And respect for Carpenters view of old pieces, his effortless self-evident interpretations bring these into the modern era. And he takes the music not the face but also gives you new perspectives and allows us to delve into her soul thereby.
