The 14th episode of Kuroshitsuji has aired, with the new ending theme: Lacrimosa, by Kalafina! You can download a rip of the TV-sized version here.
The full single of Lacrimosa (SECL-760/761 DVD special edition, SECL-762 regular edition) will be released on March 4, 2009, the same day as Kalafina’s album, Seventh Heaven which will not include Lacrimosa.

It was announced on the Kalafina website a confirmation that the album will be called Seventh Heaven, named after the final Kara no Kyoukai theme: seventh heaven.
There will be 13 tracks, with theme songs from all 7 Kara no Kyoukai titles, as well as five others. There will be a special edition released that comes with a DVD containing PVs of sprinter, fairytale, and seventh heaven. Also included will be videos of Kalafina live, from two Yuki Kajiura LIVE concerts, where they performed the opening acts.
Thanks to Michelle for the translation!

The Kalafina official site has announced that the first Kalafina album (as of now untitled) will be released in the spring, at the same time as their 4th single Lacrimosa (the Kuroshitsuji ending theme). The album will contain all 7 themes from Kara no Kyoukai, along with some album-exclusive tracks.
[EDIT]
In addition, it seems that at last night’s Yuki Kajiura LIVE Vol #3 concert, there were several juicy announcements as well. The following have not yet been confirmed in text on any official sites:
