Ambush On ALL Sides

Yong J | 01/05/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is the best, performance and recording wise, SACD I have heard so far. All tracks on this SACD are well performed and recorded, and tract 11 (Ambush On All Sides) alone is worth the price of this disk. The Ambush On All Sides on this disk is one of best multi-channel (if not the best) experience I have had. One is really ambushed by sound from ALL sides when listening to this track, amazing! Buy this SACD if you like Chinese music and/or are looking for an excellent SACD demo disk.

On the downside, this disk doesn't contain any Guqin or Guzheng track."
