mkrzych Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I saw on Gramophone that Ivan's Mahler 9th was reviewed already but it is accessible only for premium subscribers. Anyone who has such subscription will be so kind to share what was the reception and how it is with comparison to the reference recordings? -- Krzysztof Maj http://mkrzych.wordpress.com/ "Music is the highest form of art.

ted_b Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 We are forbidden to announce what awards Mahler 9 may have received from publications like Gramophone before it's actual publish date. But they liked it a lot. By the way, the downloads will be available later today on the site. "We're all bozos on this bus"....F.T.

Russell_L Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Fantastic news, Ted--thanks!!! Will download it first thing after I get back from work this evening. BTW, are you at liberty to say whether the new Vaughan Williams & MacMillan Oboe Concertos album on Harmonia Mundi will be available on Native DSD? It's already out on several other sites, but in PCM only. Since it's a DSD recording, I've been waiting patiently for it to appear on Native DSD, but there's no sign of it so far.

FWIW, the 96/24 download is very nice. The Britten Suite on English Folk Tunes is delightful, and the two McMillan pieces (which are new to me) are very interesting. Will get to the RVW later today.

Musicophile Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Where did you hear it? His Mahler in general, especially 1&4, not the 9th obviously (no insider knowledge here). Check out my blog at musicophilesblog.com - From Keith Jarrett to Johannes Brahms Link to comment

Musicophile Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 By the way, I just checked the May edition of Gramophone, and the Mahler doesn't feature there yet. I assume it will appear in the June issue in about 2 weeks. And on another note: the David Fray Schubert I recommended above is Editor's choice in May, and the review really is extremely positive.

I think you can tell from my post above that I liked it. ;-) As for the Vaughan Williams/MacMillan, it is supposed to be an original DSD recording (that's what's indicated in the booklet), so I really hope the DSF file will be made available at Native DSD. (I've passed up on other--and cheaper--opportunities to download the PCM version from other sites.)

Fischer, the BFO, and Channel have truly reached a new level of excellence with this release. [ATTACH=CONFIG]18495[/ATTACH] What an expensive month. Must be close to $200 in downloads in the last four weeks. Downloading now, one of my first DSD downloads. Pity my DAC doesn't play it natively, but then A+ does. I have all of my Channel Classics album so far in 24/192, and they sound fantastic. So at least when I get a DSD DAC in the future I may as well have the native format.
