Past Purchases (CLOSED)

[springrite]

Just sent out an BRO order, which will be sent to a friend in the US who will bring them back to me in the summer. I plan to make no more orders (and in fact not even looking into BRO or other CD sites at all) for the rest of the year. Too much work to do this year and I have used up my budget.

Listen what the cat dragged in.



Gustav Mahler
Symphony No.4
LSO - Gergiev

[Lethevich]

This is one of his best. Like Nørgård, Simpson's 3rd seems to have been a bit of a breakthrough for him, and the 5th a pretty good bridge between that work and the superb duo of 6 and 7 (I don't know if they are intended to compliment each other, or whether the disc programming is influencing my opinion, but they certainly feel as though they are).

[karlhenning]

Charles Wuorinen – Tashi; Percussion Quartet; Fortune The Group for Contemporary Music New Jersey Percussion Ensemble

[Renfield]

Charles Wuorinen – Tashi; Percussion Quartet; Fortune The Group for Contemporary Music New Jersey Percussion Ensemble

Is there something we don't know about Roger Norrington?

[DavidW]

Is there something we don't know about Roger Norrington?

Wow that went right over my head.

[Opus106]

Is there something we don't know about Roger Norrington?

His beard's thickness and those glasses actually remind me of Koopman.

[CD]

This is one of his best. Like Nørgård, Simpson's 3rd seems to have been a bit of a breakthrough for him, and the 5th a pretty good bridge between that work and the superb duo of 6 and 7 (I don't know if they are intended to compliment each other, or whether the disc programming is influencing my opinion, but they certainly feel as though they are).

I own the disc with 6 and 7 (which is unfortunately over 1000 miles away atm :|) but never felt that it clicked with me, but the disc with the 1st and 8th really broke him for me — the first is surprisingly assured (even if it borrows quite a bit imo from Nielsen, but he's a good model to imitate) and the 8th is just odd and beguiling like I had imagined his later stuff to sound. I have a feeling Simpson's going to become a favorite in the near future.

[kishnevi]

Listen what the cat dragged in.



Gustav Mahler
Symphony No.4
LSO - Gergiev

I know you haven't been a particular fan of Gergiev's Mahler to date, with the exception of his 8th.  Is this one of a piece with the previous releases?

[Renfield]

Wow that went right over my head.

Look at them side-by-side. Charles Wuorinen, based on that picture, could comfortably have been Norrington's superhero identity.



Navneeth: The Koopman match is unlikely. Ton Koopman would have made a violin out of that cat long ago.

[J.Z. Herrenberg]

Look at them side-by-side. Charles Wuorinen, based on that picture, could comfortably have been Norrington's superhero identity.



Navneeth: The Koopman match is unlikely. Ton Koopman would have made a violin out of that cat long ago.

Haha!

[DavidW]

Look at them side-by-side. Charles Wuorinen, based on that picture, could comfortably have been Norrington's superhero identity.

Oh gotcha!

[Opus106]

Navneeth: The Koopman match is unlikely. Ton Koopman would have made a violin out of that cat long ago.

[Sergeant Rock]

Another day I could have used Jens's cat. From Amazon: the Szell Brahms and the Boulez Mahler cycles are now complete; Bruckner from Vienna; a Britten work that comes highly recommended by our British experts here; and film music by Carl Davis.










Sarge

[Opus106]

the Boulez Mahler cycles are now complete

You couldn't wait for the flurry of anniversary boxed sets in this year and the next, could you?

a Britten work that comes highly recommended by our British experts here

*Makes mental note* Thanks.

[jlaurson]

I know you haven't been a particular fan of Gergiev's Mahler to date, with the exception of his 8th.  Is this one of a piece with the previous releases?

I don't know yet... I haven't had time to listen to it. But I'll make not in the Mahler-chamber.

Also:

Listen what the cat dragged in.



Rodion Shchedrin
The Enchanted Wanderer
Four Fragments from "The little Humpbacked House"
Concerto for Orchestra No.1, "Naughty Limericks"
Mariinsky O&C - Gergiev
Mariinksy Live

[Lethevich]

If you haven't heard those Bridge Variations before, you're in for a treat - it's like being a child again

[Opus106]

If you haven't heard those Bridge Variations before, you're in for a treat - it's like being a child again

I must say, you're music-related posts have really made me want to explore turn-of-the-20th Century English music. I LOVE the RVW misc. orch. works 2-CD set but I have yet to listen to his symphonies -- a try at the 4th many moons ago left a bad taste, but I'll return to them. As for Britten, it's those "kiddy" stuff that he wrote that has my interest at the moment so the Naxos disc seems a good place to start.

[Lethevich]

The 3rd and 5th symphonies are along the lines of the works on that Marriner disc (the oboe concerto in particular has many similarities) - the others... very differing in style but with a lot to offer. The RVW thread is probably too enormous for casual browsing, but he has plenty of fans who could offer advice if needed

[Sergeant Rock]

If you haven't heard those Bridge Variations before, you're in for a treat - it's like being a child again

I haven't heard it yet but the discussion I did hear (read) made it sound utterly delightful.
