Camel: Music Inspired By The Snow Goose | Kveld-Úlfr - May 16, 2026

Original 2011 SHM SA-CD title, using japanese masters (that were at the time of the album's release directly copied from the original UK master tapes). The 2016 SHM SA-CD ...

Coltrane '58: The Prestige Recordings | Mark Werlin - April 27, 2026

John Bacon-Shone: yes, this is the 2019 set from Craft. A quick search through discogs.com does not show any newer remasters of the 1958 recordings. I will write about newer ...

Mahler: Symphony No. 5 - Runnicles | Graham Williams - May 26, 2026

Contrary what Presto and Amazon state this release listed below is SACD and I am sure will be added to the site database. John Bacon-Shone is correct about the unreliability ...

Coltrane '58: The Prestige Recordings | John Bacon-Shone - April 27, 2026

I am happy to see hires digital here, but mastering is crucial. Unfortunately, some remasters are much worse, so stating the date and source of the master is invaluable.

Opus - Sakamoto | onenairb - April 15, 2026

Van Halen: 1984 | MacClaus - Yesterday 11:25 am

This remaster sounds lifeless. A big disappointment.

Steely Dan: Aja | fausto kantiano - June 3, 2026

I want to second aubullience's comment. This AP SACD of Aja absolutely trumps the Japanse 2010 edition, which I reviewed (as a user) for the old SA-CD.net site. This new ...

Genesis: Genesis | EugenF - April 27, 2026

Lutosławski: Concertos for Cello / for Orchestra, Bloch: Schelomo - Queyras, Gimeno

Harmonia Mundi  HMM902714

Stereo  (75 minutes)

Classical - Orchestral

Jean-Guihen Queyras (cello)
Luxembourg Philharmonic
Gustavo Gimeno (conductor)


From the lyricism of Bloch’s Schelomo to the modernity of Lutosławski’s Cello Concerto, together Jean-Guihen Queyras and Gustavo Gimeno explore the cello’s vocal qualities, ranging through prayers, cries and whispers. In response, the Polish composer’s Concerto for Orchestra is a celebration of collective vitality and exuberance. A voyage of discovery, from an inward song to an outburst of orchestral energy.
