New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

However...

When you compare this BIS SACD to the Chandos disc mentioned below, I would point out that BIS offers the full ballets rather than the suites. This is a huge point in its favor over the Chandos disc. Plus, Litton is on top of his game here, and Colorado sounds terrific. This performance of Rodeo could possibly become my favorite, and Billy the Kid comes quite close to Slatkin/St. Louis (my own personal benchmark recording). Because the suites omit some splendid music from the complete scores, I can't see any reason to "settle" for the Chandos disc. In this context, I think "more Copland" is better than "less Copland." Just my opinion, of course.
