RCA's "golden age" was more like a "golden minute" - in a scant period, roughly from 1958 to 1963, the beginning of the stereo era - pure vacuum tube amplification helped produce recordings demonstrating unparalleled fidelity and warmth, lifelike presence and midband illumination
Another fine Heiftez/Primrose/Chase collaboration
Throw in Hendl conducting the Dallas Symphony Orchestra on the Rozsa Violin Concerto and Solomon conducting the RCA Victor Orchestra on Benjamin's Romantic Fantasy and you've got a winner
