Sibelius 6, Bernstein, New York...Lenny blazes his way through this.


Now that's a great set.  Think I'll spin my favorite 5th a bit later.  8)

I just finished the Seventh...it's my new favorite version! This is a great Sibelius cycle.

"hey, they made a movie about
Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."

That was what I thought, Harry. We talked about that 3-CD set some months ago (Reply #58675).

Yes you are right, just found it. Well, what can I say, you have a better memory as I have.

....apparently, all her recordings abruptly ended in 2001 or 2002. 

This made me wonder too. But Italian Wiki says 2005, so this is probably the correct year.

Concerto Grosso. Nobody could take this seriously, but it's nice easy listening.

I don't take anything Glass composes seriously.
