If anyone knows where I can get the Bach organ works played by Andre Isoir for a good price I would be grateful for all info. For now the lowest price is Amazon It 44,95, but the charge for sending it makes it more expensive.
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.

I know Que, but I want to build up a collection of divers interpretations. There are some aspects I like about Isoir.

I know that I have a minority opinion about this but having both the original Davis since the original release along with the newer LSO/Live, I am still very partial to the John Eliot Gardiner/Chatelet production on DVD which features Susan Graham & Gregory Kunde, two perfectly matched voices.  I have yet to hear another sextet, septet & Nuit d'Ivresse which is quite as magical as that one.  Add in Anna Caterina Antonacci as an incredibly powerful Cassandra (dare I say Callas-like?!) and Gardiner's careful attention to using Berlioz' specified instrumentation, and it is a wonderful set.  Take a look at some of the bits of it that are available on YouTube.

How so, Claire? ;D

That's some wake. ;D Anyway, I wouldn't know anything about all that. I look just like my avatar.

Pensive and sensitive are always fashionable. ;D

Did you notice that v10 of the complete Scheidt has been released? Music from the Görlitzer Tablaturbuch.

Yes, I have got it and heard it already.

It is an informed no-nonsense interpretation on an interesting small historical organ.

Well two people I respect on this forum are equally happy with this ensemble. I will start with some recordings of them, any recommendations?

They have recorded many different kinds of music, so maybe it depends more upon your musical interests.
I own at least a dozen of their recordings, and consider them a safe buy, whatever the repertoire..

Amazon.fr (incl AMP), JPC  and Fnac are, as far as I can see, the best sites to look for recordings with Diabolus in Musica.
