How does it compare to the Apple streaming atmos version? My bias would lean toward indistinguishable but on the other hand few apple atmos recordings draw me in like my favorite (lossless) 5.1's do.
yes, you are right.. well, as long as they are close to the Beethoven Symphonies Box set from him and mentioned in this or the last page, it's all bueno
) MDG make the extra effort. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys Baroque choral music in the northern German style similar to Buxtehude, and Bach. My simple mind still does not comprehend why the download ($59.00) costs more than the SACDs.I came upon what I consider a 'sweet deal' at ImportCD for Bruckner's 9 symphonies in 5.1 multi~CH SACD [9 DISCS] performed by various conductors* with the Berliner Philharmoniker. Import CD erroneously lists it as Bruckner Symphonies 1~7 but they contain ALL 9. Presto's price is $10 more plus s/h

Presto Music seems to have reasonable prices, something I like.View attachment 78672
This is an excellent performance of sacred works of J.V. Meder. He was a younger contemporary of D.Buxtehude. He may not be as famous as Buxtehude or Bach, but Meder’s motets and cantatas are of high quality. This recording is especially interesting as it includes a couple of tracks for multiple choirs with discrete use of the rear channels. I wish I could say the whole recording was discrete (like Audite’s SACD “Polychoral Splendour from the four galleries of the Abbey Church of Muri - Strobl” was) but alas most of the tracks on this recording are ambient. Having said that, even the ambient tracks have a full, natural soundstage. And it’s nice to see (hear

I also like how easy it is to do advanced searches for SACDs, labels, eras, etc… on their website.
Beautiful piece! Thank you for sharing it. I don’t have many good radio stations where I am now. But I have a lot of good memories of discovering new music on the radio. And speaking of film music, I checked out Jocelyn Pook’s soundtrack for “The Staircase” and the track “Bad Weather“ reminded me of Carter Burwell’s mesmerizing score for the 2015 film Carol. Yes, there certainly is a lot of gorgeous music in films. BTW, I also like Angèle Dubeau’s interpretation of “Experience“
