What a delight! I don't think I've ever heard such virtuoso lute playing before. These are arrangements of 16th century madrigals and canzones by Giovanni Antonio Terzi in 1599, who apparently added a lot of flourishes and counterpoint. Life-like sound, too. (In multi-channel, the lutenists sound a bit larger than life; I prefer the stereo SACD layer.)

I thing both Bart and Julian have probably posted this, but its worth a repeat:
Mozart: Divertimento K.334 & Oboe Quartet K.370 Scottish Chamber Orchestra Alexander Kanjczek, conductor & violin Linn Records 2011 via 24/192 download Excellent performances with lovely lilting rhythms. The Linn recordings of the SCO are all really well done, with clarity, good soundstage and dynamics. If you're doing hi res downloads and like Mozart the Linn site is a great place to start.

The download is available on hdtracks. But now I'll have to look for the Bernstein, thanks.

I started listening to these newly purchased sets (it will take a while unless I "binge listen"!), and I like what I hear--muscular playing when called for, and amazingly good sound.
