Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chorus ...................
It was clear from the start that Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, with its air of solemnity in the final chorus, which calls for brotherly love just as the New Year comes in, would become a musical part of our world’s cultural legacy. Hundreds of minds, Beethoven researcher Karl Nef prophesied, have been set in motion by this music in the most varied ways, and it will continue not only to bestow pleasure upon thousands, but also to stimulate mental life right at the most fundamental level. There are certainly only a very few truly cerebral interpretations which stand out from the fathomless mass of recordings. One of those upon which The Absolute Sound has stamped its coveted seal of approval is the recording with Georg Solti and his perfectly-honed symphony musicians from Chicago. Here, this usually somewhat daring baton-wielder plumbs the very depths of the score and allows Beethoven’s rich abundance of ideas to ferment into a great whole.

The until-recently-defunct "Mobile Fidelity Labs" audiophile album vinyl pressings were not only analogue, audiophile masterpieces and connoisseur delights, they have become true pieces of audio history and lore. These majestic recordings received a meticulous and laborious treatment like no other recordings in the entire history of the recorded sound. They are characterized by the massively extended dynamic and frequency range, mastering from the very first generation of original master tapes, almost compulsive attention paid to the detail and integrity of the pressing, and the highest quality of the material (only the "virgin-", audiophile-grade vinyl was used, and most of the titles were pressed by RCA/Victor and/or Warner-Pioneer corporations of Japan, both known for their near-obsessive attention paid to the fine sonic detail and audio craftsmanship); a special proprietary  technology was used to achieve analogue-like, warm, translucent, radiant, vivid and all-encompassing sound. To this day, many of these recordings remain unsurpassed, delivering music reproduction as close to the actual recording session as possible, without any loss of musical information inherent in the standard practice of mastering from the inferior "production" copies.  EVER SINCE THE MOBILE FIDELITY SOUND LABS TEMPORARILY CLOSED IN DECEMBER OF 1999 (ONLY TO REOPEN IN 2003), THESE RECORDINGS HAVE BEEN ESCALATING IN VALUE AND DEMAND. 

MFSL LIMITED EDITION. This Limited Edition FACTORY SEALED LP is an audiophile collector’s item that simply gives the feeling of being directly in the studio with the artist. Used nothing but the finest lacquers. The more you play the LP, your stylus will polish the grooves and actually improve the sonics of your MFSL LP. This recording is mastered from the Original Session Tapes. This Out of Print LP has all Liner Notes, Photos, and Artwork from the Original LP faithfully recreated.

A SONIC WORK OF ART. These Out of Print gems are the FINEST/RAREST of the audiophile LP market. The future of these collectibles is so exciting because each piece is a sonic work of art that will never be reproduced using this state of the art proprietary technology, high quality ingredients and attention to detail from beginning to end. The depth and dimension of the music is delivered back to you with all the dynamics and richness of the live recording session. With Mobile Fidelity, you will come as close as possible to hearing the three-dimension quality of the music just as the artist intended it to be.

******************************************************

Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab (MFSL) was founded in 1977 by audiophiles with the the goal of providing serious music listeners with limited editions of faithfully reproduced high-fidelity recordings. Under the leadership of Herb Belkin, Mobile Fidelity remains a small, indepedently-owned company guided by the following philosophy: - reproduced music should sound as close to the real thing as possible.

Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs limited edition audiophile cd remains unsurpassed, delivering music reproduction as close to the actual recording session as possible. MFSL-Halfspeed LP´s are mastered directly from the original master tape. Consequently, it does not suffer the loss of musical information inherent in the standard practice of mastering from production copies.

in German language:

Chicago Symphony Orchestra und Chor ...................
Es war von Anfang an klar, dass Beethovens Neunte Symphonie mit ihrer feierlichen Ausstrahlung im Schlusschor, die zu Beginn des neuen Jahres brüderliche Liebe fordert, ein musikalischer Bestandteil des kulturellen Erbes unserer Welt werden würde. Hunderte von Köpfen, so prophezeite Beethoven-Forscher Karl Nef, wurden durch diese Musik auf unterschiedlichste Weise in Bewegung gesetzt, und sie wird nicht nur Tausende erfreuen, sondern auch das geistige Leben auf der grundlegendsten Ebene anregen. Es gibt sicherlich nur sehr wenige wirklich zerebrale Interpretationen, die sich von der unergründlichen Masse der Aufnahmen abheben. Zu denen, auf die The Absolute Sound sein begehrtes Gütesiegel gestempelt hat, gehört die Aufnahme mit Georg Solti und seinen perfekt geschliffenen Symphonie-Musikern aus Chicago. Hier lotet dieser meist etwas gewagte Stabträger die Partitur aus und lässt Beethovens Ideenreichtum zu einem großen Ganzen gären.
