The price for the 96/24 FLAC is very reasonable (10,99$) so I will buy it without hesitation. Thanks for the recommendation, Kal!

Disc 1: Symphonies 1 & 3. This sounds superlative and I can see right away why folks here recommend this highly. Oh yeah, the performances are excellent too.
Continuing to explore this set.

SACD 7: Symphony No. 10. Powerful and intense. The brass is nicely captured here.

Carlos...the 10th is my favorite Shostakovich symphony.
I like this older performance from 1971 by Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra on Columbia Lp.
Excellent sound that definitely captures the power and intensity,as you put it.

Laudes
Douce Mémoire, Denis Raisin Dadre



Every 6 months or so we play this fantastic 'fusion' album: a prefect marriage of renaissance with mystical sufism.

Downloaded the album in FLAC (24/96) and now listening for the first time. First impression is very positive!

Thanks again, Kal, for the heads-up!

Polyphonic pieces that seem to be downloaded directly from heaven.
Sung by an absolute top ensemble.
Nice recording too.
Listening to this album again.
I can only confirm my earlier findings.

Here we have...

Dvorak: Cello Concerto in B minor, Op. 104
Tchaikovsky: Variations on a Rococo Theme, Op. 33

...two giants striking sparks off each other. Good 1968-vintage recorded sound sound.

Arrow From the top of the HP/TAS list of the best LPs
This one is a winner in every sense of the word!!!!

Listening to the original RCA Living Stereo LP

Prokofieff — Lieutenant Kije
Stravinsky — Song Of The Nightingale

Chicago Symphony Orchestra - Fritz Reiner, Conductor

The late Harry Pearson said more than once that this was his favorite recording . . . and it is that good. Incredible performance, incredible sound.

And, I love it !!! ❤️❤️❤️
