My only difficulties with the restoration centred around a small scratch partway through side one, and a slight tendency to high frequency swish. As restorations go, neither presented major obstacles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body\" align=\"left\"\u003eThe analysis for re-equalisation at the heart of the XR remastering system showed a good and largely accurate frequency response in the original recording, though with something of a roll-off in the upper end which left an audible sonic veil over the proceedings. Lifting this brought new life and clarity to the sound of both piano and orchestra, whilst the addition of Ambient Stereo helps to really round out the overall audio picture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"body\" align=\"left\"\u003eI've not yet touched on the performance - this is surely one of Mewton-Wood's finest!
