Clair de Lune Leopold Stokowski and the Philadelphia Orchestra 1937

April 5, 1937, Victor Red Seal Records.
Played on my 1939 Silvertone Radio Recorder with a stereo Electro-Voice cartridge and diamond 3 mil stylus tracking at about 10 grams..

I absolutely adore how I can search ‘Clair de lune gramophone’ and actually come up with something so I can hear the sound quality and get a vibe for it. Bravo internet. Bravo.

Non-existence is the best ever for everyone, in this life and in any other life, sadly; it seems we all are not lucky enough to get the best !!!! 🖤

The Evil within music

[@Saku19]

RUVIK!

[@ou2m7DNSKxrulHPIU6I86f]

Yes, the evil within brought me here. Lol. I thought it was a theme music composed for TEW exclusively, but turns out to be a well-known classical music. Surprise, surprise.

Exactly what brought me here. This song never fails to send chills down my spine.

A purple-haired eldritch being brought me here.

[@Mr_x_19922]

So this was released 32 years after Debussy publication, how come it took so long if gramophones already existed in the 1910's and 1920's?

[@blazouille3149]

Mr_x 1992 Using a gramophone at that time was very difficult: Firstly because it was very expensive; Secondly because a single error and we had to start all over again from the beginning (the vibrations of the sound on the speaker engraved the song on a cylinder, well, it's more complex, obviously.). Basically, an error and a new cylinder was needed. I guess this version was recorded with an electric microphone which was much simpler and which made the sound better ...

[@youwerethere]

Records from early times were recorded acoustically, which took a hit on quality of the sound. This is an electric record which has better quality and as such can capture the song better

[@isiso.speenie5994]

Boy that starts out with some heavy vibrato ! In the player or in the production ?

[@billybonk7673]

This sounds creepy
