Completely agree.Rued Langgaard THE STRING QUARTETS [DACAPO/3 multi~ch SACDs] Gorgeous!!!!!!!
Nice! Huge Weill fan here. Didn't know about this one.
What we need on multichannel SACD, humprof, is a definitive recording of Bertolt Brecht/Kurt Weill's

Agreed. You gotta think Michael Dutton could get his hands on that Columbia recording with Raul Julia if he had a mind to....
Jay?Otherwise I only know of Lady In the Dark and Street Scene in Dolby Surround on Jay.
Assuming you've got this recording of the Threepenny Suite, though? I've never heard the reel, but the CD4 is pretty good, if not hugely discrete.

And there's also the violin concerto on Sono Luminus--absolutely superb recording:

Humprof, do you have those JAY Dolby Surround CDs of Street Scene and Lady in the Dark? Is so, comments?
Just checking to see if I have that QR of Kurt Weill/Darius Milhaud ...... I know I have the CD~4.....somewhere but haven't heard it since the late 70's
Just got the Kleiber recording of Die Fledermaus on 2-CD/Blu-Ray Audio. The packaging doesn't make it entirely clear but there's 24/192 stereo and 5.1 audio, and also a Dolby Atmos Track (but only at 24/48). The 5.1 track is pretty clearly a repurposed quad mix - this is the overture.
I finally got around to ordering a copy of Shostakovich 5 by Ormandy-Philadelphia PO; that makes it version #4 (1xCD; 2xSACD; and 1xLP). As a subscriber to Marie Kondo's philosophy of only possessing stuff that brings you joy, I just hope this one brings me joy as I've got too much music already and not enough time to listen to it. Fingers crossed

Derek, I have NO idea who Marie Kondo is but I do believe these stunning D~V QUAD SACDs will bring you MUCH JOY .... or your money back [LOL]!
I don't know how anyone with even a passing interest in classical music wouldn't get much joy from this overstuffed set - two full LPs and two LP sides, including a brand new quad mix of the Hary Janos suite from Michael Dutton. I believe this is the premiere international recording of Shostakovich's final symphony - there's a good review of the CD version here: Shostakovich: Symphony No. 15/Ormandy - Classics TodayI finally got around to ordering a copy of Shostakovich 5 by Ormandy-Philadelphia PO; that makes it version #4 (1xCD; 2xSACD; and 1xLP).

Another review of this and two other D-V releases here: Shostakovich Symphony No. 5 / Shostakovich Symphony NO. 15 / Shostakovich: Incidental music for Hamlet / Walton: Violin Concerto /Bliss: Violin Concerto / Schoenberg: Gurre-lieder / Pierre Bouez /
