[Steve Bruzonsky]

I just ordered the combined SACD/Blu Ray package. You can order them separately as well.

Thanks for the heads up. This is the BD-V link:

From what I gathered, the SACDs in the combo package are stereo-only, while the blu-rays include 5.1 [dts-HD 48/24] & Dolby Atmos and are region A locked.

BTW, DGG usually releases these discs in the US at a later date and will hopefully await those releases!

For those in search of a region-free DGG blu-ray of a John Williams concert with Atmos sound:

And this one has a dedicated "pure audio" Blu-Ray AND a Blu-Ray with Video (with lower resolution audion, but still HR)

AmazonUS does indeed have a 'placeholder' for John Williams Live in Tokyo with a release date of May 10th

Here's the tracklist for the Japan blu ray. When you rip there are 20 tracks, the 1st and two other tracks are applause or talk. The Japan blu ray has tracks listed in Japanese only.

In the future, I will need to have patience and wait for the US version to go on sale with English. HA!

 

[Steve Bruzonsky]

Listening to this now in Dolby Atmos. WOW! Sensational.! Yes being from Japan the index is in Japanese only. However, will you play it right from it shows the name of the song in English!!!! Classical and John Williams multichannel fans. This is a must get!

Now that is some organ

Received this today from Rarewaves.

John was 91while conducting this fantastic orchestra.

Listening to it in glorious Dolby Atmos.

To my ears, this is the finest that Johns music has ever sounded.

Highly recommended.
