Dvořák: Symphony No. 9 - Kertész | breydon_music - September 17, 2024

And very nice it sounds too, with an extra overture added for good measure. Many people preferred his earlier stand alone VPO account but I could never see that myself, and ...

Hi John No disrespect to the Spanish orchestra, but the BBC Philharmonic are on top form and the programme is considerably more generous.

Agree with Analogue on this one. Really surprisingly good.

Steely Dan: Aja | aubullience - August 25, 2024

A true sonic triumph and much better than the earlier Japanese SHM-SACD release of Aja, which was a rare SACD disappointment for me on the sonic side of things- I haven't ...

Adrian I feel sure that last year sometime you posted that the next volume in this series was scheduled to be recorded in Spring 2024. As that has come and gone do you have ...

Thanks for your excellent review Graham. I follow your advice on the Chandos recording and have deleted this one from my wish list.

On the disc it is written: Made in Austria. On the cover it is written: disc made in Germany. Where is the true?

Interesting and long-awaited album that brings together all the SACD recordings internationally; Mahler’s 5th and 9th as well as Bruckner’s 8th were released earlier on SACD only in Japan. The box set features also a new recording, Shostakovich’s 7th, that has not been released before. A good choice for those who have not purchased individual albums, I think.

BR Klassik gave up on SA-CD a few years ago so this is really interesting. Maybe stock clearance or less likely a change of art!

Very sad news this morning as Mariss Jansons has passed away at the age of 76. He had been unwell for several years and left the RCO a few years ago because of his declining health. Unquestionably one of the foremost conductors of our age and a huge loss to classical music. He leaves us with an outstanding legacy of wonderful SACD recordings with the RCO and the Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks. R.I.P Maestro
