COLLECTING CLASSICAL - Which format? Vinyl vs. CD/SACD vs. Streaming vs. Downloads

Whether you are just getting started building a classical music collection, or a seasoned collector, there are many ways in which to enjoy the music. Even if you are primarily devoted to vinyl you should consider supplementing your listening and collecting with other formats because otherwise you are going to miss out on a ton of great recordings. The Classical Recording industry is thriving at the moment, largely through the efforts of small independent labels. In this video I break down the options available. Resources mentioned in video: David Hurwitz's YouTube channel:    / @davesclassicalguide   Website: Classics Today (apologies for misremembering the title in my video) https://www.classicstoday.com Mr. Hurwitz is a fountain of knowledge on recorded classical music, and his videos will keep you informed and entertained in equal measure. He is a good alternative, indeed corrective, to "establishment" sources like the Gramophone and Fanfare magazines. Recommended independent classical music labels include: Hyperion https://www.hyperion-records.co.uk Chandos https://www.chandos.net Bis https://bis.se Harmonia Mundi https://www.harmoniamundi.com/#!/home Alpha Classics https://outhere-music.com/en/labels/a... Dutton https://www.duttonvocalion.co.uk Pentatone Music http://www.pentatonemusic.com For historical recordings, I highly recommend Pristine Classical. Their remastering is leagues ahead of the competition. https://www.pristineclassical.com An excellent resource not only for purchasing classical CDs and downloads but also for reviews is Presto Music in UK. Even factoring in the cost of international shipping they have competitive prices and excellent sales and service. https://www.prestomusic.com/classical Recommended channel for classical music fans and collectors: Poetry On Plastic    / @poetryonplastic   An invaluable guide to all the different pressings of the main classical labels:    • A Guide to Collecting Classical Music on V...   Another excellent resource for new classical recordings is BBC Radio 3's long-standing weekly broadcast "Record Review".
