Title: Marketing Gimmick
Product review: I've always been a bit wary about this recording - with the CSO captured in Symphony Hall in Chicago, and the organ part (the instrument at Chartres) dubbed in. This gimmick was apparently purely marketing-driven, given that Symphony Hall has a wonderful Moeller instrument. Moreover, I think that in the dub the DGG engineers went a bit off the deep end with the volume control. This is not how the work would sound live played by these forces in a normal concert venue sans dub. Or is that not the standard to be used?
