I recently came across a number of recordings made in UHJ format in the
early 1990s by a small company called Mirabilis. The man who started this
broke off the recording business when he took over the old British pipe
organ company Henry Willis and Sons, which has naturally kept him fully
occupied ever since. Most of the recordings he made are, unsurprisingly,
of organs - but there are a number of others. In fact, the only two disks
still available to buy are one of chamber music by modern Scottish
composers and one of a program of music sung by a male close-harmony group
from Ely.
All the information I have been able to unearth about these recordings is
gathered here: <http://ambisonic.info/mirabilis>. I have got copies of
more than half of the disks, which sound superb; but I am still hunting for
the rest. (If anyone here happens to have any of the recordings I am
missing, I would love to know, of course!)
