Re: [ARSCLIST] Classical record review media

If you are interested in Hi-Fi rags, most of them still run classical 
reviews.  "Hi-Fi+" devotes significant space on classical music.  I 
think "The Absolute Sound" still does, but my subscription lapsed a 
while back (they also spent considerable time on movie music).

I'm less interested in publications that have only long articles focussing on one or two releases, such as The New Yorker.)
