Ok. I purchased a Mint copy of this from a personal connection. The pressing is as close to silent as a record this quiet from this time in the label could be, and let me explain two important details many people are forgetting:
1. Modern classical composers don't sell records like rock starts - they especially didn't in 2009.
2. This is quiet music.
No one should expect a perfect DMM, hot stamp pressing on these early Richter albums. The label nor he could afford the attention these quiet recordings needed on wax. Now that Richter is making more money and working with larger labels, his vinyl releases from 2015 and on will likely have been given the attention for better sound quality--because he is selling more.
This album was pressed AS GOOD as any other FatCat album at the time. It's just the quietest age may have some interruption. I give the pressing a B. It is NOT terrible. Just spend the dough to get a mint copy like I did and it's worth it. These works are beautiful and the predecessors to his opus, The Blue Notebooks. My copy was a rewarding experience and I didn't have to play it on a low volume to enjoy. My set up is a $10k system, that would pick up every little defect, but there were few. Just surface noise because the label couldn't afford the "white glove - hot stamp" treatment.
Expect this to eventually get the pressing it deserves, but for now, this is a great collector piece for fans of Richter, the label and the genre. -
Most of the time I hear pops and clicks of the vinyl or just the noise floor of the friction of the stylus against the LP itself, because the record is unbelievably quiet. Album is a masterpiece, but the pressing is beyond bad.

Edited 12 years agoIndeed, great record but the pressing is utterly terrible, should have never made it past the test phase. -
AMAZING release. Literally groundbreaking and just plain beautiful! However, the vinyl is cut very soft and therefore the cracks and slight warping of the record are greatly magnified in comparison to almost all other records in my collection. Definitely still highly recommended; a hugely cathartic experience!
