CD1, all Gabrieli.

This does NOT make for good reading music, or any other secondary purpose. I think they heard time differently back then than we do today, and that's disorienting.

Disorienting, but quite fascination!

Mighty fine transfer ....

Agreed. Though it must be said, I also have the final three Beethoven sonatas in a 2011 Emil Berliner DSD remaster on SHM-CD, and that one also offers audible improvement over the original DG 2CD, but IMO it does not even come close to the (very expensive) Esoteric Hybrid SACDs of Pollini's final 5 Beethoven sonatas.

Also have the Beethoven 2011 SHM-CD, but did not bother for the Esoteric release as not ready to obtain the material for a third time (and for this asking price) ....

Understandable. A shame Op. 101 and 106 aren't available on SHM-CD in similar DSD remaster, though the whole set of 5 is available on HD Tracks in high resolution.
