Piccolo upper notes are bright and shrill, and can often be heard above the full orchestra.
Not so in Gold Sound; to my ear, the tone of flute and piccolo is identical.*
And far from sounding "shrill", the equivalent flute notes are louder.
It is suspicious that the volume of note A6 (1760 Hz) is very weak in both recordings.
*Perhaps because both instruments have few harmonics, or is it simply my aged hearing ?
(Traduction en googlais:) Les notes aiguës du piccolo sont brillantes et stridentes, et se font souvent entendre au-dessus de l'orchestre au complet.
Ce n'est pas le cas dans Gold Sound ; à mon oreille, le timbre de la flûte et du piccolo est identique. Loin d'être stridentes, les notes équivalentes de la flûte sont plus fortes.
Il est suspect que le volume de la note la6 (1760 Hz) soit très faible dans les deux enregistrements.
