Old Records Admired.
One can go back even farther
and recall that the last move

mini about 1920. now q travesty
Of orchestral sound, was then
true high fidelity" Similar ex-
amples will come to the mind
Of everyone. They should not
be taken as indications that the
present great achievement Of
high fidelity sound is either q
hoax or unnecessary. but rather
as evidence. that the ear ex-
poets what 1t Is used to get
ting.
I was one Of q small group
Of amateur tape recording en-
thusiaSts who in the summer Of
1852 put the Clavierubung Of
Bach on discs. The records were
widely reviewed. and while there
must have been unfavorable
notices, confess that Of the
more than 100 I, have seen all
were highly laudatory Of the
high fidelity and realism Of the
music.
Now, while we attempted as
close an approximation Of the
actual sound of the music as
patience and experimentation
could manage. we who were IA
miliar with the original knew
that it was only an approxima-
ton, and far from the real thing.
The success of the records, In
my opinion (not to belittle the
part played by the truly excel
lent equipment used, can be
laid to two causes:
Reasons for Success.
1. Extra-musica1 disturbing
noise was minimized. That Is to
say. the records were carefully
made. Spices were inaudible.
there was no tape-shadow and
little If any pre- and post-groove
echo. We insisted that the mas
depressing be clear and with
out swish.
2. We did not monitor the re-
cordings in any way whatever.
Volume and characteristics of
sound rem aimed constant
throughout. Even though the
music may not have been iden-
tical with the original, 1t was a
consistent identity that the ear
accepted as true.
An entirely opposite theory Of
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-03-07

music critic, has formed his
impressions of high fidelity
partly in the role of a tape
recording enthusiast.
High Fidelity" is a term that
came into general use shortly
after the last war to describe FM
radio, monograph. and tape re-
cording equipment capable Of
very high and low frequency re-
Spouse which. on conjunction
with other characteristics, could
reproduce sound in an extremely
lifelike manner.
It is an unfortunate term in
one respect-it is emotional
rather than scientific.
Some mechanically reproduced
music Of the 1930s created the
illusion Of reality to a high de-
gree, while on the other hand
within the last year or so some
Of the manufacturers of mass
produced combinations have
taken to calling products "high-
fidelity" that are nothing more
or less than what were known
as ordinary" monographs when
high fidelity" was a descriptive
definition.
The relationship between high
fidelity reproduction and actual
music is not a simple one. The
ear Is a very faulty sense-organ.
and one not difficult to deceive.
A piano in perfect tune sounds
fat in the top register to the
human ear. The tuner must
make the top octaves sharp to
give the illusion of the proper
pitch. A good organist can
create the impression Of voice.
leading that does not exist. 4
Ear Il Adaptable.
The ear is inclined to accept
as valid the sound it has last
heard. In making experiments
for tape4recording I have found
that the first notes Of a play
back Of piano music Immediately
after the actual piano sound
seem very different from actu-
atty. but that after a minute or
two Of listening the ear may
think it is hearing q close imi-
tation. Experiments with an
electronically reproduced clarinet
tone show that the listener is
unaware Of the removal one by
one Of several overtones, and is
amazed at the effect when they
are replaced all at once.
This adaptability Of the ear
to whatever circumstances it
finds itself in suggests that the
best recording is not necessarily
the one which test instruments
show to be the most faithful to
a scientific ideal. It also ex-
plains why certain photograph
