LSO Live into the fold of Pure Audio Blu-ray
Written by Karl Erik SyltheThe record company belonging to the London Symphony Orchestra enters the growing club of labels claiming Pure Audio Blu-ray.
What distinguishes the LSO Live label from most others is that it is owned by an orchestra - London Symphony Orchestra.
Now LSO Live expand their repertoire, and publish records also in the format Pure Audio Blu-ray. They have already announced two releases. One has works by Mendelssohn and Schumann, conducted by Sir John Eliot Gardiner, and Maria Joao Pires is soloist in Schumann's Piano Concerto. Release date for this is set to 13 October.
The second release on Pure Audio Blu-ray is Berlioz's Symphony Fantastique, conducted by Valery Gergiev. It is scheduled for release on September 29 in the UK.
Both releases are released as dual-disc, with both SACD and Pure Audio Blu-ray, like the Norwegian label 2L has made the majority of its Pure Audio Blu-ray releases. But in addition, LSO Live add HD video as bonus material on the Blu-ray discs. We don`t know that this has been done before on any Pure Audio Blu-ray releases, but it is a very good idea even though it breaks a bit with the concept of Pure Audio.
