Negative Positive
Title: Warning to casual listeners: Mostly unlistenable
Review: While the other reviews praise the quality of the performances, it is unmentioned how badly the dynamic range of the recording ruins the product. If you listen to it on headphones or in a dedicated room (I don't) it may be ok, but if there is ANY background noise at all, you will hear minutes of silence punctuated by blasts of trumpets and chorus, the Hosannah and little else. Gain equalization software helps, but the levels are too dissimilar for that to be of much use. What needs to happen for this cd is a remix, bringing up the quiet parts and down the trumpets.
Is the review positive or negative?
