Binaural Classical?

Thread Starter 
Does anyone have any recommendations on binaural full album classical music? I'm trying to track some down. I've found a few sound clips on the web, but there seems to be a huge lack in binaural albums.

I'm interested in this too. Tips on classical, as well as good recordings of any genre, in binaural would be greatly appreciated.

3.5 years and no response. Not a good sign!

I know of precisely one classical binaural recording.

It is Berlioz' Symphonie fantastique/Love Scene from Romeo et Juliette - Paavo Jarvi - Telarc SACD-60578.

I don't know if it is in print, but I hunted down a copy a few years back.

There's a catch, though. The binaural tracks are channels 4 and 5 on the multichannel SACD layer. So you need a SACD player with 5 channel output, and then jack the rear two channels into your amp.

I did this a few times while I was still running the CE595 (the SA8001 is 2 channel) and it sounds incredible. Apparently, they stuck a Neumann head up in the balcony to record the two rear channels for the SACD.

See my blog. I have a thread there about binaural recordings and there are some that are classical.

I find it strange that they are selling these in MP3. You loose so much of the binaural cues with MP3. I wish they had them in FLAC.

here is one I have. It has 13 songs that play as a normal recording and then it repeats the same 13 songs as binaural recording. This allows you to compare the differences normal recording and binaural.

I own two Binaural Classical CDs that I purchased from another Head-Fier in a package of 12 Binaural albums.

 

I found both of them on Amazon. Enjoy.

Necro bump.

Would you happen to know if the 4th movement "Dream Of a Witches Sabbath" was made? That happens to be my fav. movement.
