HQ Player (#1) & Audrivana (#2) (wow! love the Apple w/music!!) .. these two software make my system "Amazing!", Purist USB- Benchmark DAC2 HGC (love it!), Purist Audio XLR , ATC SCM25A's (To Die For!) & Focal sub6 . Triode Power Cables with Uber Buss (Yes!) Also enjoy Audeze LCD3 w/"fat pipe cardas."

This was mentioned in another thread. Excellent version - performance and sound - I didn't know about. Listening on Tidal (different release) and ordered the CD from Amazon.

All absolute statements about audio are false :)

Could you check your Tidal source?  The only version I could find was 96kbs.

Tidal has some weird search quirks. On one search I came up with the one you are seeing. But there is also this, if you play with the search terms: https://listen.tidal.com/album/8746572

As I tried to mention, the version on Tidal is the same recording, different release to the CD I bought and pictured.

Yes, USA.

 

FWIW, Tidal's rabbit hole did lead me to the Big English Music Box which includes the Handley/RPO Holsts' Planets as well as some very outstanding offerings by other English composers.
