Title: Presto shows June 7 release of Vanksa/M.O./BIS M3 -weird cover!

Weird cover and strange, expansive timings. I think the cover is saying 'kaleidoscopic' or 'psychedelic'. I - 36:07 (Maazel-ville); II - 9:41; III - 19:07 (more Maazel-ville); IV - 10:26; V - 4:24 (Horenstein-ville); VI - 24:07.  The sound quality on the samples is really, really good. I'm just hoping the offstage posthorn solos aren't stretched out too long in the Scherzo movement.

Graet news!

I heard an archive of one of the live performances and it was pretty specitacular, a really superlative Mahler Third^

The Minnesota brass really roared and rumbled, above all in the opening 'Pan Awakes, Summer Marches In.'

The woodwinds were excellent too and very prominent throughout.

Interesting timings!

Let's also remember that BIS sometimes puts 30 seconds of additional silence at the end of their final tracks, so the finale might be somewhere closer to 23:47, for what it's worth.
