Rating:  - Terrific replacement
Dvorak's "New World" has always been a favorite of mine. Over the years my music collection has become all CDs. I sold or gave away my hundreds of records and have replaced most of the favorites on records with the CD version. This recording of New World proved to be one excellent replacement choice. The sound is incredible.
Rating: - Excellent rendition
As good as it gets. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra in the "old days."
I cannot speak for the other titles, but Dvorak's 9th was very good indeed...
Be sure you get the Hybrid SACD version and not an SACD unless you have an SACD player...
Rating:  - A Good CD with a BIG mistake in it!
The New World Symphony is the best blended and most musical I've ever heard, but the end of the Polka and Fugue everyone, except the tubist, is playing too loud. Its blatty and offensive to me especially the trumpets. Don't get me wrong I like loud playing but not when the whole section is in unison. Also there is a very loud wrong note in the trumpets in the last statement of the subject! It's kind of funny! Anyways everything else about this CD is very good. Especially the New World Symphony.
Rating: - A truly wonderful experience
I have several CD's of Dvorak's 9th Symphony but it's unlikely I will play them again. The performance is the best I've heard and the recording is outstanding. My wife, who doesn't even particularly like classical music, came into the room when I played this recording the first time and actually sat down and listened to the whole CD. That might be a first for her and the fact that she was impressed, impresses me.

Rating: - One of the Great Recordings of this All Time Classic
RCA has a vast and incredible library of classical music recordings, particularly in its LIVING STEREO series, and over the years has re-released some of its great titles. One of the more popular and enduring recordings in this series is Fritz Reiner's recording of Dvorak's Ninth Symphony with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. People familiar with the LP version will instantly recognize it distinctive cover with a photograph of the Statue of Liberty, the same monument which would have greeted ... Read More
