How does this recording compare to the many other recordings on SACD, Graham?

In my first comment, I pointed out a few small differences in this SACD release compared to previous Universal Japan editions. Now it seems there's another interesting ...

It seems that the plight of the industry has also been reflected in BIS's recording preferences, especially for releases in the last six months (which were, however, recorded ...
The Crystal Method: Legion Of Boom | Jeroensky - April 12, 2025
I own a DVD-Audio of this album. It is the best album I ever hear when it comes to alternative electronic music. Hi resolution, real 5.1. This album is remixed in studio ...
In Heavenly Harmony: Romantic Music for Violin and Organ - Auner / Lucke | JPO - May 11, 2025
Disappointing experience. The multichannel area of the SA-CD layer contains a fake multichannel recording, with very little signal in the center channel. It is highly likely ...

One of the great choral masterpieces, Bach's monumental Mass in B-minor - a setting of the complete Roman Catholic Mass by a Luther Protestant - is a magnificent synthesis of Italian melodic invention, French rhythmic dance forms and German contrapuntal mastery. Written over two decades and completed the year before Bach's death, it can be viewed as a retrospective of a lifetime's work and the ultimate affirmation of his religious faith.
