Fidelity Tape vs. CD

Can someone provide a brief overview of the frequency response
characteristics of a good quality audio cassette tape compared with a
recordable CD?

I am interested in recording ambient nature sounds and would like to
capture as much realism as possible.

Thank you,

David King
