I doubt he intended a slight at Zeus.

Two sets of proactive hands will always be better than one and dear Zeus does not need to apologise for the burgeoning success of 'his' SA-CD.net, which probably would have exceeded the capabilities of any one driven person to manage alone.

It is good that you are there with him and that Zeus is willing and able to share the burden without concern.

Absolutely. We have years of hard work to thank Stephen for. If he has reached the point where he needs to share the burden, that is understandable. After all, sacd.net is not life or work or family. I think it's great Polly was able to step in and keep the site going!

Went into my local SACD retailer today (yes really!) and noticed a new Harmonia Mundi release from Stile Antico. It's not on the database here, hopefully someone in the know will add it soon...

It's called:

Passion & Resurrection: Music Inspired by Holy Week (Stile Antico)

You could get the disc and do it yourself.

I see that Acoustic Sounds posted pre-orders for the upcoming Audio Fidelity Yes and Rush. No date as yet.

Music Direct list these SACD release date as December 25th.

Yeah -- the combination of cast, conductor, and SACD (as opposed to being a video recording) is certainly a call back to a bygone era of the recording industry.

The real unknown is if Gergiev will deliver. Both live and on recording I find him to be so highly variable.

But I'm certainly not going to consider buying the upcoming Janowski Ring until I hear some of Gergiev.
