The new erato



Like the first issue immensely, so time to get this (on the Alpha sale at mdt)





Heavy discounts on leftovers on the ASV catalogue.

Apparently there was a famous coffee shop in Vienna called The Red Hedgehog, which he frequented. :)

Aha! :)  That is kind of a funny trivia fact to know, but it's good to realize that there are meaning to things, even when I don't know what they are. :)

What unites them is massive purchases of Hyperion cds. ;D

Not quite. What unites us is massive purchases of reduced price Hyperion cds

Yeah so out of trouble that wife registers on the forum to keep track of you! ;D tehehe  If Elgarian's wife does the same thing then the symmetry will be complete. ;D

Not so far ...

Oh ho indeed.  Without that I'd be comparing him maybe to Harry instead. ;D

Francaix, Jean - Concertino for Piano & Orchestra et al w/ Cassard & Fischer + Ulster Orch.

I can vouch for that one, Dave!

Canceled my eMusic account today after getting irritated by their new format. No more monthly mp3 download shipments for me, except maybe Naxos new releases from ClassicsOnline - which come with the booklet notes in PDF form.

BUT ... before I left I enjoyed their offer of some free "please don't go" downloads!  :D

From the Soviet vaults:
Vieuxtemps - Violin Concerto No 5 - Leonid Kogan, Kirill Kondrashin
Tchaikovsky - Serenade melancolique - David Oistrakh, Kirill Kondrashin, 1948 - a tear-jerker of a performance  :o
Wieniawski - Violin Concerto No 2 - Roza Fain, Kirill Kondrashin - never heard of this violinist before
Saint-Saens - Introduction et rondo capriccioso - Roza Fain, Kirill Kondrashin

From elsewhere:
Bruch - Violin Concerto No 1 - Isaac Stern - 50s on Sony "Early Concerto Recordings" - anybody know the orchestra/conductor?
Beethoven - Sonata No 27 - Ivan Moravec on Supraphon
Ivan Moravec Live in Brussels (NEW RELEASE)
Brahms - Violin Concerto - David Oistrakh, Staatskapelle Dresden, Franz Konwitschny

Beethoven - Sonata No 27 - Ivan Moravec on Supraphon



This, IMHO, is the definitive Op 90
Cheers

Eugene Ormandy, I should think. 1956?

I can't speak on this particular recording but those quintets are masterpieces.

I didn't know about these bargain sets before-- Handel Edition.  6 cd set of goodies conducted by Harnoncourt.



And 6 cd set of goodies conducted by Christie, who also conducted Orlando on the bd that I watched.

Recent 'purchases', at any rate:


Bacewicz, Violin Concertos



Thanks for the hint about the imminent DG review, one for me I'm sure.

But note that Hyperion also seems set to release a disc of music for string orchestra.

Arrived today from amazon.de. Thanks to erato for pointing out the availability of Final Alice  :)  Although not noted on the cover, the Till and Don on the Sony Strauss CD are the Cleveland performances, Szell conducting. Thought I'd hop on the Festetics band wagon, starting with quartets the Mosaiques have not recorded.

That's the one I have and love, albeit with a different cover. :D

(Though I presume you're just updating your version of it, of course.)
