Since the introduction of the compact disc just over two decades ago, Australian conductor Geoffrey Simon has been associated with outstanding recordings combining cutting-edge technology with a dramatic, bold interpretive artistic approach. His recordings of Ottorino Respighi"s music, including a number of recording premieres, have met not only enormous critical praise but enthusiasm among fans of late Romantic music and lovers of "all-stops-out" audiophile sound. Cala Records is pleased to announce the reissue of one of Maestro Simon"s most spectacular Respighi programs in high-definition multichannel SACD format, at last available as it was meant to be heard--in surround sound.
