Fritz Reiner/CSO - Respighi: Fountains of Rome / Pines of Rome (1960) 24-Bit/96-kHz Vinyl Rip

Stirring readings of the two most popular of Respighi's three Roman tone poems by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under Fritz Reiner. The familiar compositions are performed with all their colors showing, and the record is sure to be in demand among both old and new collectors.
(Billboard, 8 Aug 1960)

Whichever other Respighi tone poem recordings you ultimately purchase, you MUST own this one. Since the early ‘60s it has been the standard by which all others have been judged, and in terms of both sound and performance, it has never really been surpassed. The final march of Pines is simply incredible: thundering bass drum, crashing cymbals and gongs, bellowing brass–nobody since has brought the whole thing off with the same combination of excitement and discipline.
(David Hurwitz - ClassicToday)
