Cincinnati Pops Orchestra / Erich Kunzel feat. King' Singers - Perform Music Of The Beatles (2002) [SACD]

I've been meaning to say something about this wonderful SACD for years. I love the compositions by Lennon/McCartney but prefer their music best when preformed by Jazz Ensembles or Symphony Orchestra's. So I guess I'm not a real Beatles fan but I sure love their music writing skills.
This is musically and sonically one of the finest SACDs in my collection. Not only is it super cool but it really shows what great writers Lennon/McCartney are, like the Beatles recordings never could. The orchestra playing, the rhythm, the perfect voices of the king'singers and the superb sonics make for some very enjoyable music! I wish Kunzel would do a follow-up recording of more Beatles music, how about a "King's White Album"?
I have had this SACD for over a year and have been able to audition it on a number of systems, including my new reference quality system, and I have to say that the soundstage sounds somewhat distant and narrow, and overall, the sonics are not spectacular. However, I did not relize this until I purchased my new system, and I thaught the sonics were fine on my previous equipment. The modern arangements were creative and do justice to the original Beatles arrangements. The King's Singers, as usual, did an excellent job.
