April 24th for the download. How long until the CD is released, I wonder.

Alan Howe

It's usually within a couple of weeks (of the download). Worth keeping an eye on jpc.de...

The coupling is the 34+ minute Second Suite in Canon Form in G Major, Op.16.

Thankfully. I never understood why different formats should be released on different dates.

Alan Howe

My copy's already been sent off - wonder how come?

Edit: The CD's available now! They must have changed the date:

Clearly a certain number of cpo releases come out independently of the company's usual monthly quota.

Always keep an eye on jpc. The download date (at Presto) is still 24/4.

Until it suddenly isn't. The 4D chess games cpo is apparently playing with their release dates never cease to amaze me.

It's all very odd. We end up checking websites every day...

Mine, also, has been shipped, two days ago.  I have to say the cost and shipping to the USA were quite reasonable.

Normally, I would have waited until it showed up on Amazon.com, but thought it better to get ahead of the tariff situation.

I'm sure we all trust that there won't be a hugely negative effect on CD collecting on the other side of the Atlantic.

JPC shipping to the US is quite inexpensive, even for large orders.

I don't think the tariffs apply to works in the keys of D minor, F sharp, or G, so you should be safe for now.

Well, maybe they'll slip through during one of the periods when he's declared a Pause.
(Just checked the other thing I was wondering about, and that guy hasn't too drastically revised the Kennedy Center program since personally taking over its management; the May 1 program with works by Schnittke and Shostakovich (the 4th symphony), which I was worried for- though I can't be in DC this year - is still there, for example.) Apologies; tangential, but, well, not used to this, is all the rest I will say at all...
