The Schubert: Piano Sonatas Op. 120 & 143, Hungarian Melody and 12 Waltzes by Vladimir Ashkenazy Reel to Reel Tape is a masterclass in turning ivory keys into pure poetry. Recorded during the mid-20th century’s golden hi-fi era, this tape captures Ashkenazy—one of the greatest pianists of his generation—channeling the lyrical soul of Franz Schubert. From the stormy drama of the sonatas to the toe-tapping charm of the waltzes and the folksy sparkle of the Hungarian Melody, Ashkenazy breathes new life into works originally penned in the early 19th century Romantic tradition. The reel-to-reel format brings a warmth and intimacy that makes it feel like Schubert himself snuck into your living room for a private recital—only with way better sound quality. A vintage treasure for collectors and music lovers alike, this tape is equal parts sophistication, passion, and a dash of Viennese charm.

Packaging
Packaging and shipping heavy and fragile audio equipment requires careful attention to ensure the safe transportation of delicate components. Firstly, selecting appropriate packaging materials is crucial. Sturdy cardboard boxes with double or triple walls offer better protection, and packing peanuts ensure extra cushion for the equipment and prevent any movement. Most items are double boxed to provide the utmost protection to your new piece of hi-fi equipment. For added protection, using shock-absorbing materials like air pillows can help absorb impact and all items are wrapped in bubble wrap before boxing. Finally, securely sealing the package with strong tape and labeling it as fragile is important for proper handling. When shipping heavy audio equipment, using reliable freight services that specialize in fragile items and provide tracking options is recommended to ensure a smooth and secure delivery process.
