Music for people who don't know or like classical music,

This review is from: Experimental Blu-ray Community Project (Blu-ray)
What a bunch of hype these Jero discs are. I had a chance to listen to one at a friend's house and was much underwhelmed. The orchestral playing was not top notch, as some of the uninformed on this site have said. They must be deaf or the kind of people who are impressed easily or like elevator music. To even compare the "international orchestra" or whatever they are called to the Vienna Phil, Berlin Phil, and Chicago Phil is to reveal a lack of music education and understanding. I'm an orchestral music by education (Masters in Music, percussion), training and profession. When my friends in some very prominent orchestras heard this recording, well they just laughed at all the hoopla over nothing. 7.1 sound? Since when does sound emanate from the rear (excepting Berlioz's Requiem or Mahler's 8th) like there are musicians playing there? Have any of the positive reviewers ever BEEN in a concert hall? I think not. In reality, there is very little, radiated out-of-phase sound coming from behind and the sides. This and the abundance of idiotic reviews in broken or exaggerated English seem like some marketing scam to sell a product. It reminds me of the quote "don't throw pearls before the swine" because they won't appreciate true greatness if they think this is great. Save your money for real, stereo highly respected performances by major orchestras where those musicians in the classical performance and review community can agree on. Read reviews in Gramophone, Classical Musician or other well-respected publications to learn about legacy performances of this work. Or join those uninformed who praise this kind of huckstering of mediocrity and blow your money. Like Salieri said in the movie Amadeus, "Mediocrities!"

This item appears to have been produced on a home PC. This is a remix from some other source and is a terrible redub. It will not play on one of my blu-ray players and frequently drops out on my other one
