Rimsky-Korsakov: Scheherazade; Russian Easter Overture; Debussy: La Mer. Erich Leinsdorf, Los Angeles Concert Arts Symphony and the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestras. EMI 7243 5 67314 2 4.

EMI forge merrily on with their FDS, Full Dimensional Sound, series of old remasters from the '50s and '60s. These would appear to be answers to other studios' revamping of early stereo material, but EMI's choices for remastering remain a mystery. This present set, for example, is a foursquare production all the way around. Leinsdorf leads tight, competent performances of Scheherazade, the Russian Easter Overture, and La Mer, but they are in no way distinguished, and in a few instances they are downright abrupt or plodding. The LA orchestras listed above play capably but are rather thin in tone and light in weight.

Is it the sound EMI was so enamored of that they remastered these particular recordings? It is very fine, indeed, but not exceptional. ...
