I see that HMV Japan lists a Mahler 7 with Kobayashi/New Japan Phil. on Exton. Could somebody try to round up some timings on this one, please.
RCA is issuing the classic Reiner/Forrester/CSO "Das Lied von der Erde" onto one of their mid-price SACD hybrid discs. That'll be nice!
Pentatone is going to issue Haitink's first Concertgebouw M5 on one of their super-dooper SACD/CD hybrids. I always liked that performance, but this reissue will be expensive (wish they'd do his first 1969 M7). I suppose we'll eventually get a sluggish M5 with him and Chicago. Remember, Mahler is ALL about loud brass.
Euroarts is issuing an Abbado/Lucerne Festival Orch. M6 on DVD, performed in the summer of 2006. Wonder if they'll give a nice closeup of the hammer strokes? If so, I may want this.
Man, has there ever been a greater time to be a Mahler meathead?
I've got a feeling that the Litton/DSO; Boulez; MTT/SFSO; Kobayashi (assuming that he does one); MTT/SFSO DVD from Lucerne on Euroarts (in my dreams!) Mahler 8th recordings, are all going to get released around the same time.

I'm also interested in the M2 Norrington/Stuttgart Rso/Hanssler SACD hybrid coming out on June 30th at HMV Japan.

Psanquin,
I seriously doubt that Euroarts would have received permission to video/audio tape MTT's Mahler 8 in Lucerne. It was an, "in my dreams" fantasy on my part.

Thanks for the clarification Barry. I had dreamt to understand that your dreams would come true :) Maybe on TV...

I'm interested in this Sieghart/Arnheim Po/Exton DLvDE (SACD), just released on the May 23:

I hope Sieghart will do a whole cycle...then maybe we will get an SACD M10th with the S/M completion.

I'm also interested in the M2 Norrington/Stuttgart Rso/Hanssler SACD hybrid coming out on June 30th at HMV Japan.
It will arrive tomorrow here (from jpc), along with Ashkenazy's Respighi Roman Trilogy SACD from Exton and Bosch's Bruckner 5 from Aachen. I will report. Bosch, for those who didn't know did the german première of the newly revised Samale&Cohrs Finale of Bruckner's Ninth on pentecost Monday (along with the "normal" three movements). I was not there, but it is scheduled to be released later this year on SACD. For Bruckner informations, like always see best John Berky's site at http://www.abruckner.com.

Perhaps you all Knew about this already...I just noticed (while looking on the BMV Japan site) a new Zinman/Zurich Tonhalle Orch./BMG Japan SACD M3 to be released on July 25th, 2007.
-
It'll have Birgirt Remmert too. She's my favorite deeply voiced mezzo in Mahler.
-
and I've just heard the opening of a new M3 from Haitink and the Chicago band,recorded in concert last October,about to come out here in the UK on 2 mid-price discs.
Brass in top form, a more feeling performance from the maestro,and a particularly quiet audience.
And thanks,Martin,for the berky Bruckner site. It's brilliant.
