No one blows the cobwebs away like Nielsen.
You must have a very good opinion of yourself to write a symphony - John Ireland.

I opened the door people rushed through and I was left holding the knob - Bo Diddley.

That is true but I would particularly like to hear that Kletzki presentation.

Far as I am aware the only example of a Kletzki Nielsen recording.

Yes, I suspected so but was not sure. Hence my original keen interest.

Last night's spin. Nice sounds, great singing, but I guess somewhat let down by the Decca Ace of Diamonds issue.

We audiophiles don't really like music, but we sure love the sound it makes

Manny years ago I attended a Leppard concert at Dorking Halls. A conductor best known for Baroque repertoire and yet takes to Bax like a duck to water. Not given a fair crack of the whip by record companies, sadly.

Now there is one. For some weird reason only the filename part of the url was included.

Long, but worth it for the Brian Wilson anecdote alone.

This one is also from the big gift I receiverd just before Christmas:



Probably my preferable recording of the Brahms op. 34. Sachlichkeit is good for Brahms.

Fitting cover art, but I do prefer Czech PO and Ancerl on Supraphon in this.

My auntie had that LP! A happy reminder of Vox/Turnabout - an inexpensive label which introduced me to much great music (Bruckner's 7th and 8th symphonies, Copland's 'Rodeo' etc).
