Revival of Monaural Recordings




Ormandy & Philadelphiaの録音活動は、1936年に始まり1982年に幕を閉じました。その間、戦時中に一時録音活動がストップした時期もありますし、さすがに最晩年の数年間の録音枚数は減りました。しかし、トータルでは実に46年間にわたる息の長い活動で、制作されたアルバムの数は約400に達するといわれています(※個人的にはこの数字は過大と思っています)。

このうち、現在でも何とかCD復刻の対象となっているのは、1957年以降のステレオ録音のみで、それ以前約20年間存在したモノラル録音のほとんどは既に完全に忘れ去られてしまっています。もちろんかなり古い録音ですから、ステレオ録音と比較すると音が痩せていて独特な硬さ(乾いた感じ)がありますが、晩年の録音では聴かれないスリリングで熱気を帯びた魅力的な演奏も少なくありません。また、TabuteauやKincaidといった伝説の名手の演奏を楽しむこともできます。

これらの聴けば聴くほど輝きを増す名演奏が闇に葬られてしまうのはあまりにもったいないので、個人的にCD復刻してみることにしました。本プロジェクトが完了する頃には、このページはモノラル録音のディスコグラフィになっているはずです。
