*** The Home Entertainment 2004 West Show which was scheduled for San Francisco’s Westin-St. Francis Hotel Nov. 4 thru 7 has just been cancelled due to the current hotel strike. ***

Our fifth Hi-Res Drawing features SACDs from Harmonia mundi. A dozen lucky AUDIOPHILE AUDITION readers who Register Here will receive their choice of one of the above three multichannel SACDs: 32 Variations on La Spagna is a Renaissance compositional tour de force often compared to Bach’s Goldberg Variations. Baltic Voices 2 explores the choral music of the Baltic Sea countries, directed by Paul Hillier. Andrew Manze presents the recording premiere of Vivaldi’s Concertos for the Emperor in electrifying performances. Drawings will be made Nov. 1, we’ll announce the winners in Nov., and we won’t sell or share your information. Check back frequently for new material!
