Mahler: Symphonies 1–9 - Bychkov | breydon_music - April 10, 2026
I am afraid I am with hiredfox here - I find the listing of items which are not on any form of hi-res physical disc misleading to say the least. My impression, as someone who ...
Puccini: Madama Butterfly - Santini | Hade - April 15, 2026
Version long awaited on sacd : the sound is full bodied but the remastering cannot improve the flaws of the original recording. It reminds me Tower Records' attempt to remove ...
Mahler: Symphonies 1–9 - Bychkov | SACD-MAN (threerandot) - April 11, 2026
Sad to see what is happening to physical media on presto. Very disappointing. pentatone is also a disappointment. I guess this is a reflection of what consumers want? Or are ...
Mahler: Symphonies 1–9 - Bychkov | Graham Williams - April 15, 2026

Mahler: Symphonies 1–9 - Bychkov | Peter Martin - April 14, 2026
The listing clearly states “DIGITAL”. It is high(ish) res (24/96) and can be purchased as a download from Presto or Qobuz for those who do not like to stream. I much ...

Originally released in 1998 and now released on SACD 2026. It certainly has the goods sonically and is well worth a listen.
Leans heavily in the cocktail jazz vocal direction and probably an acquired taste
There is an unusual cover of Lou Reeds Walk On The Wild Side on it. I do think though, that "colored" being dropped from their version is a misstep.
