premont inspired me to follow suit, though on a much more modest scale, following my sweet wife's praise for their op 132 I played last night:



Why is it that I can go months without buying a CD or visiting GMG, yet scarcely a day goes by when I visit this site that I don't purchase at least one CD--and often of works that I already own more recordings of than any reasonably sane person could want?

(Somehow I knew you'd understand.)  ;D

Martha doesn't signal when the orchestra comes in, she's just pursing her lips.

Sarge

Sarge I just bought what must be the reissue of that. (Haven't received it yet.) Unfortunately, it has her with the "I don't comb my hair" look on the cover.  :(

It is my favorite box set on the shelf, David.  Hope you enjoy.

I've had the Kletzki Beethoven set for years and all of you are only now getting to know it?

Nice, Sarge. Hope you like it.

And here's a nod to Anderszewski for his contribution (to the music, not the leather).
Veit Bach-a baker who found his greatest pleasure in a little cittern which he took with him even into the mill and played while the grinding was going on. In this way he had a chance to have the rhythm drilled into him. And this was the beginning of a musical inclination in his descendants. JS Bach

Many will agree with you, I know I do, but I would even go further and say its a fabulous composer, for those that can hear it.

Nice, Sarge. Hope you like it.

I do. And the Prokofiev, which I'd never heard before, is a marvelous piece.

There are whole months during which I feel it's his single greatest achievement!  I am delighted that you have at last heard the F Minor Sonata!

@Bruce: Would be interested to hear how that "From the House of the Dead" is. I've heard mixed things about it.

@Harry: Very interested in that Roslavets(sp) CD, Harry. I've bought a couple of others of his recently and like them very much.  8)
