In Reply to: New classic artists you first heard on SACD posted by sser2 on January 30, 2008 at 12:49:42:
There are any number that I could name, but the ones that most immediately come to mind are:
1) Jennifer Higdon, composer and artist whose works "Concerto for Orchestra" and "City Scape" are featured on Telarc. (see below)
I am long over due in writing some comments on this SACD.
2)Daniel Roth, organist extraodinaire for the JAV Recordings label
3)Lang Lang, pianist, who I first heard on SACD (Telarc) in 2000
Robert C. Lang
