Bach Cello Suites
Andrzej Bauer, cello
CD Accord 032 (1999)

Here is a listing at the record label website: A. Bauer: Bach Cello Suites
And finally, the CD Accord label is sold through the musicweb-international website, and ACD 032 is listed as "back in stock" on this page: ACD 032 at musicweb-international

Thanks for your help. I have ordered the double CD at Musicweb. Will report when I receive the CDs and when I have listened to them.

Fretwork makes it seem to like idomatic viol consort music. 

Surprising. Maybe I eventually shall get it.

Expending the last of Santa's Amazon gift card, I've just pulled the trigger on this baby, heavily endorsed in da Haus:

How does this recording fare compared to the Schornsheim traversal of these works?

little excerpt included here:

Wow. That excerpt is so... old-school! Are those live performances? Because it does rather sound like one in bits.

Certainly live. As per old-school... at least that excerpt isn't, to my ears. Although compared only to the latest efforts (Jaervi, Vanska, Chailly, Dausgaard - not to mention HIPsters) it could seem like that. It's a very flexible, spontaneous cycle, from what I've heard, taking liberties in small ways... Not as many bold exclamation mark as Chailly but the Fourth (the sole low-point in Chailly) is certainly better with CT.

Thanks for the feedback John. I'll probably wait until the other volume is released as well. I still need to pick up the second Britten volume, although the 1st I can tell you is brilliant! I am sure you will enjoy it.

Excited to see what Gardner does next.
By the way, this last summer he did an amazing performance of the Immolation Scene at the BBC Proms, it was absolutely stunning! Made me hope he'll release some Wagner. And of course for more 20th century, I can certainly imagine him doing Vaughan Williams, Stravinsky, Janacek etc.

Excellent, this is good to hear, Daniel. I would like to hear Gardner do some RVW. That would be something. I wish he'd do the whole symphony cycle. Here's to dreaming. As for Stravinsky, Janacek...sure I can see him conducting these composers, but I can also see him conducting more Contemporary composers too like Lindberg, Salonen, Adams, MacMillan, Vine, Reich, more of Part's music, among others.

Well, turns out I made my last purhase weeks ago! I was ready to buy more, but sales were not on the companies I wanted and prices weren't particularly super duper. So here's hoping for some good sales in the new year!

[Sergeant Rock]

Positively my last purchase of the year    ....arrived this morning:




Sarge

[The new erato]

Just ordered this:

Any later?   

[springrite]

At 23 minutes past midnight, my pledge to buy no more CDs for the rest of the year just expired!

A new order will be placed within the week. ;-)

[The new erato]

Still 6,5 hrs to go here. I'm bursting.

[TheGSMoeller]

Final 2011 purchase, a nice cornucopia of music,
from more Haydn symphonies (my 7th Thomas Fey disc, and my 7th "Farewell" recording) to film music by Mertens and Preisner, and some more Rameau orchestral suites as if I didn't have enough of them already 

Happy New Year!!!

[Opus106]

Final 2011 purchase

That statement is now officially a cliché.

[TheGSMoeller]

That statement is now officially a cliché.

When will that be true for "First 2012 purchase"? 

[Opus106]

When will that be true for "First 2012 purchase"? 

Before Jan 2 would be my guess.

First purchases of 2012!

I could not resist myself getting some fresh French harpsichord stock.

An oversees purchase, which is rare since Amazon US' international shipping rates went up so much. But for issues on American Plectra Music the price differences are so big that it is worth my while.
