Does this one really exist? I've tried ordering it from several vendors and get a regular CD (barcode 7318590010785) instead.

It dates from 2000 and 2001. It is not mch only stereo. I guess it is out of print. Whether I wish to offer it for sale or trade will take me a little time to decide. Admittedly although I enjoyed every listening session, I have not turned to it frequently over the last 17 years or so.

Funny that you should mention that it is stereo only. My excessively complex Onkyo surround receiver recently started having problems with the HDMI "daughterboard." I got eight years out of it, four more than a lot of others did, evidently. I decided to ditch the rear and center speakers and go back to stereo. The simplification process was not so simple. Evidently, there is no such thing as a stereo integrated amplifier with an HDMI input. There aren't a lot of stereo receivers with HDMI inputs, either. I wound up settling for an Integra DTM-7 that has a tuner, a bunch of Network features and Bluetooth which are of no use to me.
How do you go about contacting each other off line here? I didn't find a FAQ.

This recording can be found as a download at eclassical.com, with the following note:
Please note: The 24-bit version of this album is large: 2,78 GB. It's an original DSD recording that we sell in a sample rate of 176.4 kHz. If you can't take advantage of these high res files, you might be better off choosing the 16-bit download instead.
This recording spans music from the composer’s early days and his Requiem, overflowing with humanity, and ends in the days of the musician’s maturity, with his expansive view of nature that supports the echo of the mourning bells, analogous to prayer. Perhaps, unexpectedly, the disc offers, a glimpse of a rare artist’s whole life.
This is an original DSD recording. We have chosen, as an experiment, to let the 24-bit version be 24/176,4 rather than 88,2. we do this, since there has been a demand for ever higher sampling frequencies. The draw-back is of course that it will take longer to download.
We have several other recordings that are made in 24/192 in future. We would like to have your feedback on whether to present then as such or take them down to 24/96, please. Do write to robert@bis.se with your (nice) comments.
I plan to purchase the download!
