I've done 2 cds on Reference Recordings, and one on Telarc (not Michael Bishop ).
17 mics were used by RR, no less for Telarc. SFS has many hanging from the Ceiling.
The only Single Point Stereo cd I heard was Pittsburg, and it was thin thin thin.
I use Single Point for Clarinet Quartet Recordings, it's fine for that. More problematical on bigger groups. You have to get increasingly further away to not clip off the edges ot the group, and you lose resolution, and it sounds distant.
That Japanese Mahler would be worth a listen, tho.
