Orchestral Concert CDs publishes a series of live concert recordings with superlative, award-winning sound quality. Our unique recording process, CNSTR, was employed to create an ‘audio mirror image’ of each original performance, and the spectacular results speak for themselves. Despite their advancing age, these recordings rival the best modern releases, and our review quotations are littered with compliments about our sound quality. Indeed, our 1967 recording of Wanda Wiłkomirska playing Britten’s Violin Concerto (CD12/2011) was described as “demonstration quality” by a former BBC engineer, and that recording won an award (see below) that describes its recording technique as “sensational”. So, be sure to explore our range of similarly high quality recordings! If you would like to know more about OCCDs, there’s plenty to read on the About page.
Orchestral Concert CDs now has its own YouTube channel, on which you can find a series of videos made from the sample tracks on the Sampler CD.
