New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

Beethoven 4, 5, 3, 8

I have been trying to collect SACD recordings of some of the classical basic repertoire, and I noticed two recent BIS recordings by the Minnesota Orchestra, one of the 4th and 5th symphonies and one of the 3rd and 8th. They seem to have received good reviews, although the performances may not be as good as some of the older "classic" recordings (pun intended).

Has anyone heard them, and if so, what's your opinion? - I already have recordings of some great performances of these works, which I don't expect these performances to match. What I am looking for are good, new recordings of at least decent performances with good SACD-DSD sound. Are the BIS SACDs stereo or surround?

Also, does anyone have a recommendation for a good SACD Scheherazade, preferably a recent DSD recording?

Thanks,
Jim
