 by Giulio Cesare Ricci on already legendary today Neumann tube microphones U47, U48 and M49. Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's symphonic suite "Scheherazade", Opus 35, is one of those orchestral works of classical music, which have earned the excellent audiophile treatment made ​​by Fone in a special way. After all, the colorful, multifaceted and incredibly variable orchestration that brought Rimsky-Korsakov here on absolutely masterly level to apply, comes in the recording only to its best advantage when they can be collected and reproduced in all its details and nuances.
