Just bought on discogs:



An alert popped up for a copy, again in the "not that cheap, but cheaper than anywhere else" category - nearly A$40 cheaper than the next option. For a 2 CD set I"ll take it.

If everything en route works out, I've only got 2 left to find. I'd be finished if I hadn't mucked up that interaction with a shop in Rome a couple months back...  ::)
Nobody has to apologise for using their brain.

Every year a 2-disc set of these Lugano sessions is issued. They all contain pieces of interest, but mostly pieces I don't care to listen to more than once, let alone keep on my shelves.

Except this one: upon looking for another version of Ernest Bloch's 1st piano quintet, I found it's included here. A used copy cost less than any other cd containing the quintet, so there.

Another highlight is the one with the Medtner Piano Quintet.

Nott's M7 is one of my favorites! I hope you enjoy it. I'll have to check out that Jacobs Haydn recording. Looks interesting.

Haydn's Missa Cellensis is one of my favourite works of music. Pure heaven.

Nice coupling. Excellent review on Musicweb.



Widmann is a composer I've discovered recently. This disc has his 45 minutes cello concerto and was praised by Musicweb's Hubert Culot.
