斯人 : 除了廣東話,英文,普通話略懂之外,唔唱德文,真係唔知佢唱咩喎 ?
原來Albert Coates是俄國人,師承Artur Nikisch.
可以找information see see~~~

曾見過這CD,小弟有眼不識泰山 真好又認識一Cond

另外又發現 ! 找到 Nikisch Beethoven sym no 5 1913 recond (上文有提及:貝多芬第五號交響曲《命運》的世界初錄音)
A Real RARE HISTORICAL Treasure from the Acoustic recording era.

BerlinPhilharmonic Orchestra with Arthur Nikisch plays Beethoven's FifthSymphony for HMV. Recorded in 1913, this was the first full-lengthedSymphony recording made. (Unfortunately, I only have the firstmovement.)

Played on my Victrola (Victor J1-50) with MicaSoundbox and Laubscher Forte Needle. Sorry for the low quality of thelabel picture as it was extremely small and very hard to get awell-focused photograph. (This is a 9-Inch Acoustic Record and almost 31/2 minutes were recorded on each side!!)

I didn't know thecorrect speed, so I played in 78rpm. The Sound quality is poor bytoday's standards, but still interesting enough to enjoy. And I thinkthat this acoustic playback sounds much better than the LP or CDtransferred version of this recording. (I first tried to play it withmodern equipment, but the surface noise was terrible.)

Nikisch 的 1913 貝五在 DGG Complete Beethoven Edition Vol. 20 內有收錄。

斯人1913 貝五聽後感：音場實在太狹窄，除了主旋律外甚麼也聽不到，因此，當成是獵奇性質來說算是很有趣，但實際上不要寄望從中發掘到甚麼驚喜。

其實許多有歴史價值的錄音,縱使日後會出,也是多以系列出Boxset,而單一隻出是沒可能(發行數好似起碼要3000-5000才可,可世界發行,但是否有千人以上也識Nikisch就成疑問,而且還要1913年貨仔 !)而且有留意的話,有不少有價值的錄音已被除下了,所以身邊有些資深前輩在側,是一個發掘的寶庫

聽後感也是差不多,不過年代久遠,錄音設備與效果一定定,但可一看其演繹手法也是滿有趣味的.

某日"貝九聚會"終於見識到,Albert Coates LSO 經過會上多位專業人士核對,是用英文唱的...但唱到唔似英文,可能要就著英國人,所以唱英文,算是世界初錄音,用英而棄用德,原唱神粹大減,實屬可惜

某朋友隻 CD 係 Symposium AAD 版, 他說冇乜 cut noise, 還可以聽到多少味道, 當年仲係 Acoustic 年代, 技術所限, 要大隊人逼埋喺間細房處嚟錄, 編制被逼改細, Nikisch 有咁嘅表現已經算非常本事。

Acoustic 年代就係咁錄音:
