And for those interested parties, Crochet is offering a 20% discount on all Channel Recordings (RBCD & SACD) until 29 June 2010. And much like Pentatone's Quadro series, Channel is also licensing some of the Ivan Fischer quad recordings from Decca (in multi~channel, of course) and selling them at a very fair price.

Mouth-watering indeed.

...interesting. I wonder if they will do the Legends disc too? It's a favorite of mine.

We wanted to also license 'the Legends', but the DSD information was recorded in such a way that we cannot get it off the tape. This was not released in SACD at the time and would have to be completely reedited for SACD, but was recorded on an experimental system at the time. We have tried with (Hein Dekker and Philips) to reconstruct the machine to do this but it does not seem possible.

Jared,

Do you know if the recordings of "The Miraculous Mandarin" (complete), "The Wooden Prince" and the "Concerto for Orchestra" that Ivan and the BFO recorded for Philips were originally in Quad? These are all marvellous performances and would clearly benefit from the additional resolution of SACD.

There was some great Liszt too. The "Faust" symphony and the Hungarian Rhapsodies. He was really in his element there!

Perhaps I should really be asking PentaTone?

Thanks for any information about them.

There's nothing in that release list that interests me (for a variety of reasons). Frustrating.

Hey... a lot of those old things were recorded in garages.

And it has little to do with this thread. (cranky old guy, huh)
