What are you listening to now?

[Todd]

Natalia Gutman playing the Cello Concertos.  This disc alone is worth the paltry marketplace asking price.

Now:



Listening to Walton's Viola Concerto. A fine performance of a great concerto.

Now:



Listening to Flos Campi. This is an excellent performance. I'm not sure if I rate more highly than Power/Brabbins, but its still quite fine.

[ZauberdrachenNr.7]

Zarlino is off my well-trodden path, but glad I meandered as this is about as close to heaven as I'm likely to get on this plane.  Production values, sound and packaging (fascinatingly researched) are top-drawer.

Once you get past some lumpy tempos in Elgar's Cockaigne, this disc becomes excellent, with an unusually dark, enigmatic Vaughan Williams Fifth.
