Don't forget DVD-A.

And soon the Blu-ray disc will be used as a high-resolution audio delivery medium, replacing both SACD and DVD-A.

For me Inbal's finest achievement as a Mahler conductor is M10 (Cooke's ed.). In many ways, I'd put it at the top of the list of great recordings of this mammoth work. It's extremely well played (FRSO) and recorded (Denon), with little interpretive indulgence a la Levine or Morris, but with no shortage of bleak atmosphere and angst whenever they are called for. Most importantly, Inbal employs swift but convincing tempos throughout and demonstrates a well thought out architecture. It has grown on me on repeated hearings. It's a winner in all aspects.

John,

Does anybody knows that DG release a cd( a korean release but I found it in usa market also) with Inbal conducting Brahms  piano concerto no.1 with Paik and the Czech Ph.
(John Kim you must know this, because i think Paik is your co-patriot ;)

I have the cd but not still listen to it. My instict says that will be an important release. Maybe Inbal and Czechs going to record some Mahler.
