Excellent to read. I've heard About Mother, but that's about all I heard. Looking forward to hearing more of this composer's piano music.

An extremely rare recording and the seller I bought it from on eBay accepted my offer. So pretty happy to have all (?) of Shchedrin's ballets on disc now.

Congrats. I need to give this a listen.  Probably his most "famous" work after the Carmen Suite and the "Naughty Limericks" (or "Mischievous Folk Ditties" as another entry in my collection calls it.)   I also have a DVD of the ballet, but I don't even have a DVD player hooked up to anything currently.

Thanks, Daverz. If the seller didn't accept my offer, I was probably just going to buy a download of it, which is something I try to avoid whenever I can. Yes, I've read good things about The Humpbacked Horse. I would say Anna Karenina was a well-known work from Shchedrin or, at least, this is what I remember reading when doing a quick read on one of those sites that had a short biography of the composer posted on it.

Are you sure it's not also subtitled "The Camel"?

I found another Shchedrin ballet I was missing, so I bought this one for a decent price (compared to other sellers I've seen):

I'd be interested to know what those works are like John.

I'll try my best to give a report whenever I hear the recording, Jeffrey.

Looks like an interesting recording, Jeffrey. I bought this one awhile back:



I bought it with some other Kabalevsky recordings on CPO through JPC. Hopefully, this order will arrive soon.

Hadn't seen that CPO release John, but the Alto was quite cheap and I liked the samples I heard online.

I would have probably gone with that McLachlan recording, too, but the Korstick was on sale on JPC, so I couldn't pass it up, especially since I had this recording in my queue already:

Love that cover art! And it's a great recording to boot.

Good to read, Kyle.

I misread and I thought it was 'The Lady with the Laptop'.
