FIMXRCD 021 - Oh! That Cello (XRCD2 Format)

The cello is one of the most beautiful instruments that fascinates many music lovers and audiophiles alike. If it is supported by a small, but exquisite ensemble in romantic arrangement and well recorded, then the album can become a favorite for long time listening. This is our aspiration for this recording.

We have great pleasure to have Teresa Perez to be our soloist. In fact, this is her second album in my production. The first one is the highly successful “Crossover Cello” under the label Golden String. That album was rated one of “The Best New Recordings in January CES, 1994”. This time, we have also the honor to have the very talented composer, Tim Janis, to arrange the songs for us. His ingenuous interpretation brings about a new level of warmth and beauty to the songs we have meticulously chosen for you.

Some parts of the ensemble were pre-recorded in multi-channels, but the soloists and the main parts of the arrangement were recorded in the world-famous Scoring Stage Studio of Skywalker Sound, USA. Paul Stubblebine, our recording and mastering engineer, mixed down the music into 1” 30 ips analogue tape using the modified ATR 100 with Tim de Paravicini all tube electronics for sonic excellence. Thanks should be extended to Dawn Treader, apart from his being involved in the production, kindly agreed to write about the music for the liner notes and to Bob Levy who rendered immense assistance in the mixing sessions at the Studio.
