Historical Recordings

The advancements in recordings over the years is quite amazing. Now we seem to take advantage of how advanced our technology is. If music is not completely crystal clear, there are complaints. While listening to "Sounds from the Sunny South" by the Metropolitan Orchestra, I realized just how far technology of recordings have come. The recording was very scratchy sounding and the noise was even louder than the music that was recorded. Although this was easy to notice, it didn't sound as loud towards the end of the recording because I began to get used to it and only hear it as background noise.
