Can anyone offer input on the RCA Heifitz recordings on Classic records? I know the performances are excellent. Did Classic do a good job of remastering these performances?
Thanks

Yes, they're pretty good. Classic Records managed a pretty balanced frequency response even in the 33 rpm issues.

The best of the bunch sonically, for me, is the Hendl Violin Concerto on LSC 2734 - really superb!

These are also quite good sonically, if not quite up to the standard of the Hendl recording:

LSC 2435 - Sibelius Violin Concerto
LSC 2652 - Bruch Violin Concerto
LSC 1903 - Brahms Violin Concerto
