| How's the Boston Baroque? |
I really like the period instrument sound (our church choir director brings in a period instrument orchestra to accompany our "bigger stuff" that we do at least once or twice a year, so I've gotten spoiled/used to it  ).
I don't think you can go wrong w/ baroque on the Telarc label, as far as recording quality and SACD - assuming you like period instruments and/or classical music, of course.

| Thx for the Mozart "Requiem" tip, Allen. Do you concur with PaulDA's 'two thumbs up'? |
I have it on again right now.
If you like Mozart's choral works, this is very, very good stuff - it's "big" and rich - chorus with brass/string accompaniment, mostly - it "feels" like a live performance in a good-sized cathedral. But then, I've not been disappointed with ANY of the SACDs I've bought so far - maybe b/c I've only bought what I've found recommended at several different forums and review sites (and thus far I'm not duplicating what I already have on redbook, so no true A/B comparisons are being done).
