The result of this recording is fantastic.
With this recording Giulio Cesare Ricci wanted to make the listener live a unique experience.
It is as if the listener was sitting on an armchair positioned in the ideal point of the Sala dell'Ermellino.
In this position the sound has a field effect and its depth, width and height are very appreciable.
Great dynamics but also great precision
It's an album not to be missed
