  11. It was released on XRCD24 in January. Link The XRCD24 is probably the one to get and there's not much of a difference in price. thnx - was aware of the XRCD but distantly remembered there was a japanese CD release in 2009 (??) ......... just curious (even more now), what`s the economically most viable source reg XRCD`s for european buyers - even if using the most attractive amazon.uk plattform dealer`s pricing this comes up incl postage for euro 26 and via amazon.de euro 28...directly @amazo.de the price ist 38 (!!!) euro ....... Being in EU, by far the best way is via Importcds: approx $21 plus $3 shipping if you order lets say 4 discs. alexandros, thnx for your feedback And the link to importcds XRCDs by Audio Wave in question: http://www.importcds.com/Search/Results?type=200&lbl=Audio+Wave thnx again

Being in EU, by far the best way is via Importcds: approx $21 plus $3 shipping if you order lets say 4 discs. ImportCDs' prices fluctuate daily, so it's best to put the XRCDs and SACDs on your wish list and look for the lowest price point which is around $20-21 for XRCDs like Alexandros said. Items can be up almost $10 and then fall back again rapidly, so don't despair. @erwbowl : thnx also for your input. As this is also a little bit of SHM-CD vs XRCD transfer quality topic and me eventually preferring the original cover+jewel case format version of the forthcoming japanese SHM-CD against the amended cover+larger format case of the XRCD, are there any experiences btw comparisons of the actual SHM-CD transfer quality vs the XRCD transfer quality ? To be more specific, I do have some XRCD`s and know their merits, so the question (for me) ist just wether the SHM-CD version is tranfer-/soundwise similar/comparable or not.......

  18. Can contribute just an excerpt : The works recorded here are a faithful reflection of the way in which history and art came together. The music was written to be performed by the full range of instruments, in terms of number, quality and diversity, available at the time. Lully had an incredibly rich sound palette to work with: as many strings as he could wish for, virtuoso flautists, the full range of oboes, all manner of percussion instruments, the brass section, keyboard instruments, lutes, theorboes and guitars. Although indications on the scores are rare, the occasional manuscript bearing the inscription "M. Lully joue" (Monsieur Lully performs) provides indirect evidence concerning the diversity of instruments used, indicating that the piece is for solo violin with florid ornamentation, or for guitar ensemble. Stage music of this kind required variety, not only in terms of the instruments used, but also in terms of the tempo, rhythm and means of expression. Diversity, within a context of continuity and development, was also a hallmark of the works themselves. Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme was the apotheosis of comédie-ballet, and (together with Psyché) marked the high point of Lully's collaboration with Molière. In this work, the music is not confined to M. Jourdain's eternal minuet. It has an infinitely rich score, as regards both the comedy itself and the Turkish Ceremony (Cérémonie Turque) and the Dance of the Nations (Ballet des Nations). The Spanish or, in the parlance of the age, Gypsy) Airs (Les Airs pour les espagnols) demand a colourful and brilliant execution, as do the Entrée and the Chaconne des Scaramouches. Royal Divertissement (Divertissement royal) gave another facet to art at court: great festive music of the kind that King Louis XIV, at the height of his youth, constantly commanded to be composed. Out of such festivities was Versailles born, and indeed it is the sumptuous, heroic and elegant reflection of Versailles in its early days, before 1680, that we find in this music. The instrumental music in Alceste illustrates how opéra à la française took shape. Choreography, which resulted from the fusion of ballet and tragedy, played a key role in the work, developing the full potential of court ballet: pure dance music (minuet, marches, air des démons), vast choreographic scenes (Rondeau pour la Gloire, Fête infernale), descriptive music for pantomime and dance (Les Vents) and grand, lyrically evocative funeral music (Pompe funèbre).
