End October release.

I'm very much enjoying Gottfried von der Goltz's new recording.

Whatever the musical value of this disc - a pretty dumb cover pic..... subtitled "and then I woke up and there I was ..... in a forest ..... holding a violin..... I have NO idea why I'm here"

What is this one subtitled?


"and then I realized I was underwater...in an evening gown...about to drown...but my violin sounds better underwater.  I must resist the urge to breathe and play my violin instead.  I have NO idea why I'm here"?

Spatial distortion is a serious problem deteriorating headphone listening.
Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural
and less tiresome in headphone listening.

and her wrist position is really bad too - that's what drowning does to your technique.

NOVEMBER is approaching!!! Prepare your Christmas lists!








"On this release, the Trondheim Sinfonietta, founded in 1998, has gathered four works from the three decades encompassing the ensemble's existence. All four seem to be haunted by an even deeper past: Bent Sørensen's Minnelieder is the composer's third version of a work originally sparked-off by a book about the 14th century, while Toshio Hosokawa's Drawing, from a decade later, was inspired by the very start of life. Kristin Norderval's Chapel Meditation began its existence as an improvisation, but looks back to music from centuries earlier, while the most recent work, Mantra by Ellen Lindquist, also mines a venerable musical tradition, that of the age-old Indonesian gamelan orchestra that for over 100 years has had an influence on Western composers such as Debussy, Britten, Steve Reich et al. Set for varying forces and numbers of performers, the four works together form a fascinating picture of the kaleidoscopic possibilities open to composers around the turn of the millennium."

NOVEMBER 2: DEAD COMPOSER BOOGALOO














"The Czechenyi dynasty stood at the heart of Hungary's political and musical life in the 19th and 20th centuries. Their ideal milieu lay in the vibrant, melodious dance-patterned music, of which Imre's Waltz No. 1 is a perfect example. Odon's highly accomplished works reflect his sophisticated wit, whilst in Franciska, Hungary had its first female composer and in Gisa, the world's first female film composer."

The Goldmark, the Castelnuovo-Tedesco, the Wirén, the Eller, the Kuula, the Dubois and possibly the Strauss, are the most promising and interesting for me. I was unaware about a 3rd VC by Castelnuovo-Tedesco. The ones that are recorded are simply spellbinding and deservedly recommended if you don't know them. Another month with superlative releases.

You didn't ask me, but I hope so!

Just a note.
I havd no idea of how they are in any other composer's music, but the Tippett Quartet's recordings of Tippett's quartets are excellent.

Ah, cool!  The Gorecki string quartets need to be better known.

:D Yabba dabba doo!

This is an odd one, isn't it? A classical EP: four short pieces, nine minutes total playing time. Don't believe I've ever seen such a thing.
