So, if somebody knows where to find this on Blu-ray, or selling his, I'm willing to pay a good price! Or on SACD:

I have both.

Earlier today listening to this fine recording of Bruckner motets by the Czech Philharmonic Choir Brno on MDG:

[Toccata]

He has a strong Scriabin/Prokofiev vibe, with some atonal flirtations. Some of you might know his sister's music, Grażyna Bacewicz. Very good playing and sound.

Always 100% audiophile recorded cd's.
specialised in Polyphonic music.

[Toccata]

Bach: Complete Keyboard Concertos
András Schiff
Peter Serkin
Chamber Orchestra of Europe
Cameraman Bern

Decca 2010

A very nice collection with excellent playing and nice sound, especially the solo works. I usually prefer piano for Bach's solo works, but I waffle on the triples and orchestral pieces, where I sometimes find it easier to follow a harpsichord; these are nice performances nevertheless.
