Review by Luukas March 21, 2015 (5 of 9 found this review helpful)
Performance:   Sonics:  
I strongly agree with Castor. I listened this five minutes ago and I was very impressed: the whole performance was cinematic listening experience.
The booklet says that this was mixed to 4.0 multi-channel. Actually this should be 4.1 because my subwoofer switched on during "'Marche Hongroise".
The voices were distributed thrillingly: the choirs sounds from my surround speakers. It gave feeling that you are sitting between them. In "Soldiers choir" there was a cool effect: students singing sounded from the left surround speaker, soldiers [singing] from the right. Off-stage trumpets sounded also from the surround speakers.

I don't want to write about the performance, it wasn't different. But the new surround sound resurrected these old classics into the full bloom. Highly recommended, definitely.
