Has anyone hear the new recording of Steve Reich's Tehilim and Desert Music?

I like Tehillim in particular, but there's something about the sound quality of the CD I have that I have never liked. These new recordings have gotten some good reviews. I wonder if anyone here has heard them.

Tehillim is the only thing I ever really liked by Reich (but I always *really really* liked it): I haven't checked the new one out, what are the details, DeRayMi?

Oh god just caught that typo in my subject heading. A compression of
"here" and "heard," I guess. I should beware of posting first thing in the morning.

mark, I read a review of it in the Philadelphia Inquirer from this past Sunday. If I understood correctly, it's a new recording. I haven't really heard any Reich I really liked since Tehillim (though the Desert Music is okay). But I like most of his work before up to that point.
