Great article! This is the same venue, team and orchestra that produced the Beethoven Symphony cycle on RCA, which I consider some of the best/realistic sounding MCH recordings ever released. I hope this is a long term commitment on the part of Sony Classical.

Thanks Geller! Do you have any knowledge of future projects of this orchestra and label?

I don't know what they'll do next.
But in an interview(15/09/2010), maestro Järvi said Schubert and Brahms are his priorities. You can read it here. http://www.resmusica.com/article_8503_entretien_chef_d_orchestre_paavo_jarvi___a_nous_deux_paris__.html
"Q: Et après Beethoven et Schumann, quelles seront vos prochaines explorations ? Bruckner et même Mahler ?
PJ : Bruckner serait possible à l’inverse de Mahler ! Oui, pourquoi pas ! Mais je pense que ce n’est pas une priorité, il y a d’autres symphonies à explorer avant, en particulier Schubert ou Brahms.
Q: Quels sont vos futurs disques ? PJ : Avec la Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie, nous enregistrons les symphonies de Schumann. Les symphonies n°1 et n°3 vont sortir l’automne à l’occasion d’une tournée au Japon. Nous allons aussi publier un cycle Beethoven complet mais en DVD. Ces prises de concert ont été réalisées à Bonn, en 2009. Avec l’orchestre de Paris, après Bizet, ce sera Fauré. Quant à l’orchestre de la radio de Francfort, il travaille sur les symphonies de Bruckner. Nous avons déjà publié les symphonies n°7 et n°9 et là, nous allons éditer la symphonie n°5. Mais pour ce cycle, nous progressons assez lentement ce qui est bien pour l’approfondissement !"
We can expect Bruckner 5 with Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra in the near future. Maybe...

Hi Tom
It's a Polyhymnia DSD recording and boy do they make a damn good job of - what you would likely agree - are not the most inspiring pieces in the catalogue. The "Spring" is superbly played (second piece on this disc) and probably an automatic first choice even above Tennstedt IMHO.
I bought my copy from CD Japan, total cost including shipping to England was $33, not bad when you look at some of the silly prices being asked by Amazon re-sellers at .co.uk and .com. OK, I am a bit of a slouch at the Japanese text but you can't have everything.
