There's a leaf blower outside that works very well with this piece. Thought you should know.

An interesting field. I don't really know the others, although I've heard of Higdon, and Muti conducts the Bates with Chicago.

Hmmm, in another category the ECM Gesualdo is very attractive. I love the Hilliard Tenebrae from ages ago on ECM.

This is a nominee this year: http://www.gramophone.co.uk/review/gesualdo-moro-lasso-o-crux-benedicta-dean-carlo

@Richard Gruesome—Aaaaah, I knew my viewership of MST3K would come in handy! They gave that film the business at one point. Mel Tormé was also in it but not as a singer.

@Kurt, being the Velvet Fog would be the perfect cover for secretly being a sniper/international assassin. Who'd have said no to Mel?

It just occurred to me that this Reich piece is spelling something out in Morse Code.
