This record was pressed from a master cut using a precision technique known as half-speed mastering. The procedure requires the source master and the cutting lathe to run at half speed on a specially adapted Neumann VMS-80 lathe. This rare and specialized technique transforms difficult to cut high-end frequencies into relatively easy to cut mid-range frequencies. The result is a cut with excellent high frequency response and very sold and stable stereo images. In short, half-speed mastering produces a master of the highest quality that enables the pressing plant to produce a superlative record.

In his deeply moving score, Britten set the entire text of the Latin Requiem Mass and interpolated nine of Wilfred Owen’s harrowing poems from the trenches. Britten organised the performers into three distinct but overlapping groups: full orchestra, chorus and soprano soloist for the Latin texts; a chamber ensemble with tenor and baritone soloists for Owen’s verses; and a distant boys’ choir; His choices for the three soloists were laden with deep meaning: the British tenor Peter Pears; the German baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau; and the Russian soprano Galina Vishnevskaya (who was ultimately barred by the Soviet regime from traveling to England for the premiere, and was replaced at less than two weeks’ notice by Heather Harper) to represent reconciliation between the three front-line casualties of 20th-century European conflict. Notwithstanding a few bumps, the impact of the performance spread immediately and critical reaction created momentum for a commercial recording.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nRecorded between January 3 and 10, 1963, in London’s Kingsway Hall by Decca’s ‘dream team’ of producer John Culshaw and engineer Kenneth Wilkinson, Britten’s ideals were achieved when the provincial forces in Coventry were replaced by the London Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, the Bach Choir (trained by David Willcocks), and the boys of Highgate School.  The Melos Ensemble returned, and one year after the premiere, the triumvirate of soloists, Britten had written The War Requiem for were united, with Britten conducting the performance.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nUnbeknownst to the composer, the soloists and the orchestra, Culshaw kept the microphones open and the tapes running in both the hall and the control room during rehearsals. On the occasion of Britten’s fiftieth birthday, he was given a presentation LP of rehearsal excerpts with its own label and catalogue number, BB50.  Undoubtedly offered with the best of intentions, the gift was received with less than the positive response intended, owing to Britten’s deep sense of privacy and his particular sensitivities around this work especially. It wasn’t until fifty years later, it was deemed reason to put on one side Britten’s prohibition and to assess the tape as a contribution to our knowledge of him as a performer and interpreter of his own music and to our understanding of the \u003cem\u003eWar Requiem\u003c\/em\u003e itself. On the one hand, it affords a glimpse into how Britten worked (as composer\/conductor), and on the other, perhaps of more import, is how fundamental to the original concept and interpretation of the work was the intent to disturb, discomfort, confront and shock its audiences out of a passive acceptance of the annihilation of war. The rehearsals are presented here on LP for the first time since the sole pressing gifted by Decca to Britten on his 50th birthday in November 1963.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003e* Mastering to lacquer at half-speed has the advantage of halving the high-frequency energy passing through the cutterhead, producing a cleaner and more precise top-end of the audio spectrum due to a more accurately etched groove.

At the frontier of modernity, he offered up recordings of music by several composers whom he counted among his friends: Debussy, Ravel, Roussel and Stravinsky but also Honegger, Frank Martin, Bartók and Prokofiev – all of whom are represented in this collection of recordings made for Decca between 1929 and 1955. The collection opens with a recording of six of Handel’s Op. 6 Concerti Grossi made with a specially formed band of London musicians, the ‘Decca String Orchestra’ in 1929, the year in which the label was founded. Ansermet returned to the studio to record for the label from 1946 and from then on became one of its most frequently recorded conductors. Fortunately, the music of his friend Igor Stravinsky is strongly represented in this collection. Of other composers Ansermet knew personally, several landmark recordings of works by Maurice Ravel are significant. 1952 was a particularly busy year for the conductor and his Orchestre de la Suisse Romande - with recordings of Handel, Prokofiev as well as his famous interpretation of Debussy's \"Pelléas et Mélisande\". An orchestral version of Mussorgsky's two-minute \"Gopak\" was recorded as the last work in this collection.

It all includes some of her earliest recordings, four of which, recorded in 1958 with Richard Bonynge at the piano are being published on Decca for the first time, and a set of French songs which were discovered some years ago at the end of the tapes for the French Opera Arias set. Sutherland was also invited to participate in recordings of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony by Ernest Ansermet and Hans Schmidt-Isserstedt, and these are included, as are two versions of Handel’s Messiah (Boult, Bonynge) and the Solti recording of Verdi’s Requiem. Relative rarities come in the form of an all-Wagner disc (a composer many thought Sutherland was born to sing), bonused with her appearance as the Woodbird in the Solti Ring; Bliss’s A Song of Welcome (from 1954 – her very first studio recording); and Bach’s Cantata ‘Herz und Mund und Tat und Leben’ (Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring). For her final Decca recital recording, Sutherland teamed up with fellow Australian, hornist Barry Tuckwell, for a disc of Romantic Trios, with her husband Richard Bonynge at the piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCD 1\u003cbr\u003eBLISS: A Song of Welcome\u003cbr\u003eSIR ARTHUR BLISS \u003cbr\u003eJ.S.

Verdi is showcased with Rigoletto, Traviata, Trovatore (including the ballet music sequence), Ernani and Masnadieri, Bellini with Puritani, Sonnambula and Norma.
