After @Que mentioned it today, I started listening to Bob van Asperen's series of Antonio Soler music. I really enjoyed the first disc!

Yeah, this version is a good one with Jonny Greenwood. The other one with Pat Metheny is probably my personal favorite (from the Different Trains album).

For streaming purposes, there's also Julius Katchen on what is now Decca, Gerhard Oppitz on what is now Sony, and Martin Jones on Nimbus.

Duly noted, I will explore those on Qobuz. Thank you for your effort.
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.

Quote from: Que on June 09, 2025, 04:25:45 AMStill something I have to figure out myself. On my musical to-do list!  :)

I've read some very positive reviews of Jonathan Plowright's cycle on BIS.

And what about Geoffroy Couteau's set on La Dolce Volta?

Thank you Que, I will try to find them on Qobuz.#

I hope they will complete the whole cycle soon.
The current annihilation of a people on this planet (you know which one it is) is the most documented and at the same time the most preposterously denied. The terror IS REAL!

I had played this recording of his Symphony No. 5 previously:



Not the best performance to my ears, but it wasn't bad at all either.
