"A brilliant demonstration! The animals from Tchaikovsky’s "Peter and the Wolf" and Saint-Saëns' "Carnival of the Animals" come alive and move around the listener: the swan swims round in a circle, the elephant swings his trunk and the sparrow flutters from one corner to another. It is so fascinating you almost forget the excellent playing by the Polish Chamber Orchestra. […]" (stereo)
This SACD contains a surround-version with english text and a stereo-version.

Aquarium had me grinning. The Swan had me gobsmacked! How could anything sound so superb? (email of a customer)

Stereo (06/01/2004):

"Eine brillante Demonstration! Die Tiere aus Tschaikowskys "Pteter und der Wolf" und Saint-Saens′ "Karneval der Tiere" werden lebendig und bewegen sich rund um den Hörer: Der Schwan schwimmt im Kreis, der Elefant schwenkt seinen Rüssel und der Spatz flattert von einer Ecke in die andere. more...

Audiophile Audition (06/01/2004):

"Tacet has been doing some creative things with surround in their classical DVD-A releases. They usually place the players in chamber music one to a speaker, so that with a quintet, for example, you are completely in the middle of the ensemble as though you were one of the performers. more...

Classical CD Review (06/01/2004):

"Tacet is an imaginative, relatively new company not afraid to experiment. Their concept of Real Surround Sound offers you a 360 degree perspective in which the music is heard discretely from all speakers instead of the usual surround sound that places performers in front usually only with ambient sound coming from the rear. more...

Pizzicato (05/01/2004):

"Wer anders als eine uralte Eule könnte Prokofievs "Peter und der Wolf" und den "Karneval der Tiere" von Camille Saint-Saens im Fliegen erzählen? Und welches andere Label als Tacet könnte die Eule dabei wirklich um uns herum fliegen lassen? Wer anders als Tacet könnte den Hörer genau in die Mitte des Geschehens platzieren, also bei Prokofiev etwa mitten auf die Wiese, mit dem Haus rechts und dem Wald links im Rücken, wobei der Zaun vorne links, der Baum genau vor uns und der See rechts im Tonbilde liegen. more...

Enjoy the music (05/01/2004):

"(...) Tacet′s MOVING REAL SURROUND SOUND is said to make the players as well as the notes truly mobile, and enables the listener to "see" completely new things within the orbit of the loudspeakers. more...

Crescendo (03/01/2004):

"Mehrkanalton einmal ganz anders. Schon mehrfach hat Tonmeister Andreas Spreer mit seinem "Moving Real Surround Sound" buchstäblich Bewegung in die Partituren gebracht und die Instrumente selbst in verschiedenen Anordnungen um den Hörer herum präsentiert. more...

Enjoy the music (07/05/2003):

"Tacet has released their new DVD-Audio title Moving Real Surround Sound that features Sergei Prokofiev: Peter and the Wolf and Camille Saint-Saëns: Carnival of the Animals (DVD D114 or SACD S114). more...
