I wish they post the whole concerts. The people at Symphony Cast do post the whole concerts but they use mp3 file that in a way worthless. I hope the time come when the concert houses will post non-compressed files with the content of whole event. The caT "I wish I could score everything for horns." - Richard Wagner.

Good enough to go into your "Recording Of The Week" section. I also wish they would release non-compressed files post concert and we do not have to wait more than one year for a studio-massacred official CD release - perhaps through a pair of binaurally configured microphones, which I think is the simplest way of getting something approximate to what the audience hears without any further mixing or processing.  just an ordinary lover of music
