Just received the ECM Arbos disc in mail, and it doesn't look like in all the pictures (green ARBOS text on black, on white the performers) - ARBOS is on red against the white booklet, and the performers' names aren't below it. Otherwise it looks perfectly legit..   ???

oh. It does? I guess. It's just her dress though - it's clear she is wearing a normal dress.

Clear to me too, but still I think unfortunate and avoidable.  Perhaps I'm making a mountain out of a molehill  :laugh:, but if I were the art director I would have Photo Shopped it out.  My wife agrees.

He would, but I think the question becomes before or after enjoying her virtuosity on the keyboard?

Her dress seems more wine/champagne coloured, rather than flesh coloured.  However, I am partially colour blind.  ;D

Seems more skin coloured than flesh coloured to me...
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

Only about $120K, inc. the bench.  :) Previously enjoyed can be had for much less.

And when framing a portrait goes awry:




Veit Bach-a baker who found his greatest pleasure in a little cittern which he took with him even into the mill and played while the grinding was going on. In this way he had a chance to have the rhythm drilled into him. And this was the beginning of a musical inclination in his descendants. JS Bach

Jo498

Couldn't one "puzzle together" a potrait of Mozart with the covers of that edition or was it another one?

That guy reminds me of an angry version of my violin teacher (he was always smiling, and was probably one of the happiest guys ever).

Is that Janet Leigh? :D
Beethoven's Op. 133 -- A fugue so bad that even Beethoven himself called it "Grosse".

You're right! It was this edition. Had forgotten all about that. Impressive memory! :)
