[Mr. Haelscheir]

I lately attended the concert in the following livestream: https://www.rcmusic.com/videos/rco-2024-peter-oundjian-stewart-goodyear. Of particular consideration was the Tchaikovsky Symphony No. 5 in the second half, though the first half features a rather exquisite Hamburg Steinway that I can only describe as having "insane projection" compared to the New York Steinways I've heard. In short, it was absolutely fantastic with exquisitely high-level playing by these students. As for that live recording, while the mix has the imaging sounding right, the strings suffer from a compressed sound to me though the woodwinds can be rendered well, and the end of the third movement happens to surprisingly convincingly render the height and area of the reverb above the orchestra, your feeling the diffuse and voluminous decay there in the distance, at least within the limit of my HRTF's measurement's and software's ability to convey distance, whether or not this is merely an artifact of my binaural software considering that with my head-tracking, I can also rotate my head up to face that sound; https://app.idagio.com/recordings/44517598 happens to convey similar, though not all recording do this as much. Fortunately, I happened to have already queued up this recording for listening, its finally allowing me to follow up a live concert with a "you are there" experience properly reminding me of the fresh live experience through my binaural head-tracking setup: https://app.idagio.com/recordings/34177685 (Tchaikovsky "Symphony No. 5 in E minor op. 64 TH 29", Mariss Jansons, Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks / 2009, München). Just a clarity and openness, doing (micing etc.) the string timbre and image correctly.
