It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Re: get it on DVD A

A DVDA of the Kempe Zarathustra and Alpensinfonie was issued by EMI in 2000. Actually, it was one of my first hi-res discs, as it could play on my then Denon DVD5000 which wasn't a DVDA player. One side has the analogue tape at 24/48 in stereo playable on all DVD players, the DVDA side has four channel 24/48.

When I was a teenager, I bought the LP of the Alpine symphony, and I vaguely remember it had a quadraphonic logo on it. If this is correct, possibly the Dresden recordings were poorly transferred to stereo. I only have 2 channel, but the sound is fine. Yes, perhaps a little 'flat', but the orchestra is recorded slightly more distantly than normal, and hence sounds more like what a concert audience would hear.
