agreement has been reached with DG to release on the pnetaTone label a selection of the quad recordings made by DG in the nineteen seventeens in the same way as was done with the old Philips quad recordings.
Best, PentaMan
P.S. I am retired since January so you best approach the new team in Baarn, the Nethertlands for more details

Today I found in Pentatone's release planning list 6 newly added titles for November 2014. I was very surprised: All of them are part of the Deutsche Grammophon catalogue, recordings which I did not know before: Mozart concertos with Vasary, Brandenburg concertos with Pinkas Zukerman etc.
What does this mean: A nine day wonder? Or can we hope for a new re-release series? Maybe more titles from the Universal catalogue, maybe also some more famous and important recordings?
Anyone here with some background information?
Pentaman, can you help?

Dear wolfE,

This info is correct. In November, we are going to re-issue the old Quadraphonic recordings from Deutsche Grammophon on SACD. More information will be available soon on www.pentatonemusic.com. For now for more info about the RQR series, please have a look at http://www.pentatonemusic.com/series/3.

Kind Regards,
PENTATONE

I could not wait for this. Really getting the whole series. Most probably I will add another amp and speaker. Right now running 2x Mytek for 3 channel only (mostly Analogue Productions stuff) and my ears are craving for more. Probably a good addition will this extra channel. I would have to position the third speaker of course to make it rear right/left.

For quad channel stuff, probably will apply to those Isomike recordings as well.

Are the six releases the extent of the recordings Deutsche Grammophon did in quadraphonic , or are there more coming after these six? I recall reading that they did a number of experimental recordings in quad but never released anything in quad.

Assuming there's not more from DGG, any chance of getting the quad releases from other Universal labels like Decca in the next few years?

Dear Pentatone,
thank you for the clarifícation!
I would be pleased, if these re-releases would be the beginning of a new series, for instance the second Karajan-Beethoven-cycle seemed to be a quadrophonic recording?! - By the way, there are so many great stereo-recordings in the Universal catalogue worth being re-released on SACD ...
