Alexander Gibson conducting the Royal Opera House, Covent garden (1960)
RCA "Living Stereo" LSC 2449
Recorded at Kingsway Hall, London.

The "golden age" of recordings was from 1955 to 1965, at the beginning of the LP and the stereo era, where pure vacuum tube amplification helped produce recordings demonstrating unparalleled fidelity and warmth, lifelike presence and illumination.

This Analogue Productions LP was remastered by Willem Makkee, using pure analogue components only, from the original analogue studio tapes through to the cutting head and was pressed on 200-gram virgin vinyl at Quality Record Pressings.
