Bruckner: Symphony No. 8 - Nott | John Broggio - January 18, 2026

Bruckner: Symphony No. 8 - Young also contains the 1887 version if MCH is key.

Stravinsky: Le Sacre du printemps - Hisaishi | DYB - January 25, 2026

It's an extraordinary performance, but I'm not sure it's worth that price! eOnkyo used to have it as DSF downloads. It's a terrible shame they shut down. Qobuz acquired them, ...

Stravinsky: Le Sacre du printemps - Hisaishi | Contrapunctus - January 28, 2026

Exton offers a small selection of his catalogue in a sort of prime series, which is labeled as OVXL instead of the standard OVCL series. OVXL titles are 'direct cut' versions. ...

The Berliner Philharmoniker and Herbert von Karajan: Live in Berlin 1970–1979 | Contrapunctus - January 16, 2026

The Stooges: The Stooges | Downunderman - February 5, 2026

Sure its “loud, boring, tasteless, unimaginative and childish”............but in a very good way! Apparently MoFi have no plans to do any other Stooges albums and this ...

Schubert: Symphonies 4 & 7 (8) - Järvi | hiredfox - February 8, 2026

An unusual coupling. The 4th Symphony is unremarkable and uninspiring. Järvi's reading of these works is fairly conventional (in my view) offering littlle over the many ...
