Attention all Surround fans! The recording of music from the Middle Ages entitled "Crossing the Channel", already awarded the "Supersonic" by Pizzicato, is now also available as an SACD with a version in 5.1 (in addition to the already familiar stereo). The midnight, medieval mood in the unique Romanesque church of Beaulieu sur Dordogne touches the heart even more deeply in TACET Real Surround Sound.
