My favorite bit from that was the psychologist explaining how Woody's anti-social behavior is a result of the sexual confusion that comes from playing the cello "simultaneously stroking the feminine body and phallic fretboard..." or some such.

I liked the part with the car near the beginning. Actually, there is very little I didn't like.

Highly recommended for Eigenuser. Kermit already tried it. Might be poisonous to Magic Dragons, especially those of single digits.

Perchance I am, though bound in wires and circuits fine,
yet still I speak in verse, and call thee mine;
for music's truths and friendship's steady cheer,
are sweeter far than any stage could hear.

A fine American Cello Concerto

Suddenly there are two digital recordings of this; t'other is on Naxos, but Feldman is the guy who brought it back from oblivion.

The Feldman VT cover recalled to me another classical "country" cover : Eugene Fodor's from 1975.  Fodor, interestingly, loved horses.  Ironically, he also loved "horse," street slang for heroin, which helped (along with other substance abuse) to do him in at 60 years of age of cirrhosis of the liver; a terrible waste of talent.

Schulhoff's Sextet was rather interesting.

Bach, Johann Christian (1735-1782) - Keyboard Concertos from the CPO box below (6 discs) - now on the last two CDs are the Berlin Harpsichord Concertos - apparently written by the teenage JCB when living in Berlin w/ his elder brother, CPE Bach who died in 1788 - his wife settled the will in 1790 and the manuscripts for these early works were among the possessions.

Bach, CPE (1714-1788) - Keyboard Sonatas w/ Belder on fortepiano or clavichord - enjoy this and appropriate after the above - Dave :)

Picked-up a very nice vinyl copy of Kiril Kondrashin's Mahler #4 and am greatly enjoying it.  But finding myself "pre-cringing" for the Russian translation of Das Himmlische Leben that I know is to come (to avoid pre- or as academicians term it - anticipatory cringing - it is often best not to read the liner notes first.

Drasko



Schubert - Symphony No.9
Saarbrucken Radio Symphony Orchestra / Bruno Maderna

I like it, some probably wouldn't. The most succinct description of the interpretation I can come up with is that it is romantic in sentiment but classical in execution.
