RE: That would explain why Alan isn't getting the MQA light...

Posted by PAR on January 10, 2017 at 08:25:48:
Thanks Alan. However most of HvK's recordings are on DGG. Only the early ones with (mainly)the Philharmonia Orchestra and L'Orchestre de Paris are EMI originated and now on Warner. So HvK being on Tidal isn't in itself a guide to the availabilty of the ex-EMI catalogue. However see below.

On to something that may be of interest to you. I was checking a report from the closing day of last year's RMAF in regard to MQA. It now looks as if things are going to plan as the article says that all of the Warner catalogue had ( at that point in October) been MQA encoded and that Sony and UMG are anticipated to be ready by the coming Spring. So that indicates that the HvK tracks are the EMI ones (DGG not apparently yet being ready for adding to Tidal's MQA database). It is looking very interesting for later this year.

Regards

Pete
