Reference Recordings has issued their all-time favorite, "TUTTI" in a dazzling hybrid SACD version. This is an imported pressing, with striking silver metallic packaging. It was made at Sony Japan in cooperation with Naxos International Far East. "TUTTI!" is RR's most popular title in Asia! Unusual for an SACD, the CD layer is encoded with HDCD.
TUTTI! is Italian for "all together now," as in the sound of a full orchestra playing in perfect ensemble. TUTTI! is also the new full-length sampler of RR's recent classical orchestral releases - PLUS a special bonus track available nowhere else! Artists include Eiji Oue and the Minnesota Orchestra, Nicholas McGegan and Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, Jose Serebrier and the Czech State Philharmonic, Eugene Istomin, Gerard Schwarz and the Seattle Symphony, Jerry Junkin and the Dallas Wind Symphony, and the Turtle Creek Chorale.
