	Bruckner Symphony No. 9/Skrowaczewski (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Checking out the recording dates on those Bruckner symphonies that Skrowaczewski has conducted for Arte Nova with the Radio Orchestra in Saarbrücken, this Ninth from Minneapolis is the most recent installment in a nearly-complete series.
		Happy to report, the result here suggests an actual concert hall with the orchestra conventionally seated, on a stage, inside a shell, perhaps under reflecting panels.
		This doesn't sound to me like the Minneapolis Orchestra Hall that Marc Aubort and Joanna Nickrenz recorded during the orchestra's Vox years, or that James Mallison and Jack Renner reproduced for Telarc.
