189 Blu-ray / Auryn’s Haydn: op. 64
Description
How can music be brought even closer to listeners?TACET is the German recording company that experiments most sustainably with all types of sound discs. In addition to stereo CD and LP media, the audiophile label offers SACD, DVD-Audio, and Blu-ray audio with multichannel surround recordings. The Blu-ray comes into its own on the home theater system and allows the choice between two-channel and six-channel versions. It has room for around two and a half hours of music. The screen only shows the track list, so it can remain dark. But the music fills the room in an unheard-of way. After Mozart with the wind serenade known as the "Gran Partita" and Ravel with Bolero, Pavane and Tzigane, among others, TACET now follows up with the multiple award-winning cycle of Haydn's string quartets. The six Opus 76 masterpieces, including the so-called Kaiser Quartet, were released most recently: here the listener sits between the instruments, with the violins in front and the viola and cello behind him. Unless he turns around. Here the customer is literally the emperor. (Jens Sommerschuh, Sächsische Zeitung Dresden)
