This $60 SACD sounds nearly as good as my used $9.99 LP version.

Beautiful music. Thanks for posting.

As I posted on your other posting, this is spectacular in multichannel.

It is this one. Bigbeatman is now increasing the price. 80 euros seem fine because this is a double lps album and it also has Kogan on Brahms which is my favorite interpretation and sound excellent also.

EMI reissued the SAX on their World ST562 I think in the '60's. Not that easy to find, but pretty cheap if you do. I bought it for 20GBP several years ago. Testament also reissued it maybe 20 years ago along with most of the SAX Kogans. I only have one original, the Tchaikovsky and even that has gotten crazy prices. I do have a very nice 15ips 2 track copy of the Brahms dubbed from a safety master. Still looking for good tape versions of the other SAX Kogans.

Her playing is full of youthful enthusiasm.

Caro Mitis was a great audiophile label, with performances to match. Sadly, they seemed to have ceased production.

No. 6. The new 24/196 mastering sounds quite good.

Use a good mono cartridge on this and be amazed. Ashkenazy’s way with the mighty Prokofiev 7th is right up there with Pollini.

I like many performances of her but could not get any on vinyl. Pity.

Yuja Wang ... I ran across the first vinyl format recording I've seen for Ms Wang and remembered your asking. Have not heard this.

Ravel: Piano Concertos & Fauré: Ballade

Wow. Thanks a lot Tima. You know? I was thinking of doing digital just because of her.

She is not even that good. She wears heels she finds awkward to walk in on the stage

It's hard to enjoy anything while dealing with an agonizing kidney stone, but this helped!

Excellent playing and sound.

This rather beautiful collection of pieces was the last thing I played last night & it’s the first up again this morning......

A wonderful LP recording. His playing is so expressive, and the sound is rich and full. Hard to beat analog Archive recordings. (I think the sound turned a little strident/cold when they switched to digital recorders.)
