New Releases

Images! Mais, oui, bien sûr.

Viz. the B. Michelangeli box contents . . . I do wonder what Debussy: "Video" may be 

"Video" = Japanese google translation of "Images". ;-) See also "Kanopu" and "Heath of Wilderness", recorded at the "the Royal Fesuti live at Val Hall" by my favorite conductors Ettore Gurashisu and Edmond de Shutautsu. This must also be the first commercial release of the works of "Scotty" Marais!

Yes, much wonder

Edmond de Shutautsu - man or massage? You decide.

In any case "complete Warner recordings" is BS. When he recorded these, Warner didn't exist in this form. It should be called "complete EMI and Telefunken recordings."

Warner is doing this with everything they inherited from EMI. They're burning the place down and salting the earth to make sure EMI will never grow again.

Well, "Complete recordings currently owned by Warner" doesn't sound as tidy.

It actually should be called "Complete EMI and Telefunken recordings, and some by RAI."

CDs 11-14 are Rai recordings which got to Warner via Fonit Cetra.

So it really is "all the bits and pieces by Michelangeli that we could cobble together without being sued". That would be a nice title.

It's the perfect title.

A disjointed post responding to several different recent sub-threads:

The cover of that new Argerich & Friends release is decent. It's much better than the ones on the Worst Cover thread. Her Friends are still mysteriously absent, though.

I love Australian Eloquence. (I don't think I have any German Eloquence issues -- certainly not any recent ones.)

Fricsay Vol. 2 will be a tough decision for me.

Debussy "Images" translated as "Video." Funny!

Warner does not own the EMI name. It went to Universal along with most of EMI's non-classical catalog. Putting EMI in the title of a release might be a legal gray area. (I have noticed that Decca has started doing it for some Philips recordings, but the legal details there might be different.)

Anyway, well played by the new erato.

That actually looks to me like good fun . . . also, there are some works there (the Takemitsu Requiem, e.g.) which I've never heard but have been curious about forever.  Heck, I'm considering it just for the Leinsdorf/BSO account of ΑΓΩΝ

Strange title for that box set IMHO.

Mit freundlichen Grüssen,

Well, I've already got some three or four Marteaux, so I have that acquisition mastered 

[Karl Henning]

Schuller: 7 Etüden über Themen von Paul Klee für Orchester [ BSO / Erich Leinsdorf ]

This, too, is a gem . . . as yet, I only have the Dorati/Minneapolis account of that 'un.

There's never too many hammers in a good toolbox!

Your whetting my appetite...that's me hoping a only a couple of days ago I wouldn't feel the need to buy any further big boxes...but this, at 18 €, doesn't qualify, n'est ce pas?
