Anyone hear Pugsley's new Rachmaninov All Night Vigil, (Vespers)?

Music Lane

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

I've been looking for a modern recording that might equal or surpass Sveshnikov's classic Melodiya version. Pugsley, (EDIT:Jermihov) has paid particular attention to his basso profundo line up and ratio. Recorded by Prof Johnson as well.
I just downloaded the Latvian Choir's performance on Ondine today. Beautiful, carefully-prepared performance. No glare in the climaxes. But not the old Russian sound upon which I imprinted.
