A few SACD titles

Hello all,
I've been very impressed with TELARC's SACD releases. I just got a couple of titles that, in my opinion, will make your system come alive.
GOT SWING, with conductor Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra. As the title says, this is swing music. But, oh my, it is truly delicious, well recorded, and uses every little bit that SACD has to offer.
CHRISTMAS, with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. What I really like about this SACD is hearing a several hundred member choir. There are a few songs that will convince you that all the money you spent on your system was well worth it (hehehe). The music is very demanding on any system but WHEW! this is truly outstanding in SACD format.
My SACD library is growing. Mostly classical and jazz. Luckily, most record labels now offer "clips" on their websites so you can sample the music before taking the plunge and buying the SACD. That's how I've been choosing what to buy.
Enjoy your holidays!

The MTC sounds very interesting and appropriate for the season.

News about Telarc's upcoming SACDs....

Danny,
Thanks for the link. I have already pre-ordered Spiral (I have Hirmoi's two previous SACDs). I am sooooo looking forward to her new one. WHile some of Brain's cuts are a bit too experimental for me...there are several cuts that I find compelling and breathtaking. The piano sounds awesome in SACD!
Thanks again...MarcusLSi9 + LSiC + LSiFx

No problem, DesertPilot.
Looks like the new Hiromi SACD features a follow-up to "Kung-Fu World Champion", my favorite track on her last album. I am so looking forward to this new SACD. -
Danny,
