That's great, Julian.

What did you get? You make good selections and I like to piggyback off your wisdom.

Carlos, thanks for the link. It looks great. Especially, I like that they offer a section for Gramophone award winners. When I was buying a lot of classical CDs in Japan in the 90s, I often used their guide to direct my purchases.

You are welcome, Ron. I'm glad you found the Presto Classical website useful.

Yes, the Gramophone links are useful. Less need to get the magazine, if you know what the top picks are every month.

Hello, classical music lovers.

I just wanted to let you know that Presto Classical is now offering 24/96 downloads from its website.

Studio-Quality HD Downloads available now at Presto Classical

Also, as part of its rolling sales the audiophile Pentatone label is currently on sale.

Not quite yet in the USA or Canada, though, and so far all their offerings are also available at HDTracks and/or other existing sites.

I don't do downloads so I have not tried it yet. Regardless, these guys provide great service and their website is excellent so I try to give my classical music business to them whenever it makes sense.

I purchase from them on rare occasions and always had great service; however, I tend to favor MDT because they have a Wish List, which adds a lot of convenience to my shopping experience. I don't see one on the Presto site.

Hi, guys.

For those of you who enjoy early music (e.g., Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque periods, with a particular emphasis on performances using period instruments), Presto Classical is having a "up to 30% off" sale on these titles through June 10, 2015.
