On a Distant Shore is a quite superb work, extremely evocative. Rehnqvist has a very personal voice. Arktis ! Arktis ! is a great piece as well.

I very much like Karin Rehnqvist's music and would recommend this for cool (chilly) Nordic soundscapes. Props to André for the nod toward Arktis Arktis.

Dutilleux: Symphony No.1 (in my car).
Such an impressive and captivating work - like a more modernistic Debussy:

It does indeed make a big difference.

The Planès is a new recording that I haven't heard yet. Sofar this has served me well:

Good afternoon all,

Brahms - String Sextet No.2 (Raphael Ensemble)

[Harry]

Anton Bruckner.

Symphony No, 4, last version 1879/80, WAB 104.

Sinfonieorchester Basel, Mario Venzago.

What a beacons of heavenly light these performances are under the direction of Venzago. To hear the works as they were suppose to be, and true to the intent of what Bruckner meant to say. Ravishingly is the key word for the interpretation of the 4th. You can now walk easily between the desks, and hear every single note come together as a whole glorious manifestation of musical bliss. It is a joy to be so privileged to hear such honest and clean works of genius. An orchestra that follows closely the direction of Venzago and respond with unbounded enthusiasm. Recording is very good.

Anthony Holborne.

Elizabethan Consort Music Volume II

Pavans, Galliards & Almains.

The Teares of the Muses, 1599.

Hesperion XXI, Jordi Savall.
Recorded in 1999.

A wonderful disc, where good music and excellent performances come together. Well recorded too.

Scriabin



Poems, opp. 63 and 69 - it takes just over 5 minutes to listen to 2 opuses, so I'll do it a couple of times...
Poème-Nocturne, op.61

I felt the urge to visit Vine's Piano Sonata No.1

[Harry]

Sergei Bortkiewicz.

Symphonies No. 1 & 2.

BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, Martyn Brabbins.

A firm favourite in my book. Excellent interpretations, and an State of the Art recording is a welcome bonus. I think the music is still underrated, by many a classical music lover. The music press at the time of this release were lavish in their praise, and right they were.

[Madiel]

Dvorak: 4 songs, op.2

The low opus number is because they're reworkings of songs from the very early Cypresses, enhanced by 15-16 years of compositional experience.



EDIT: And again, the faster songs are good but the slower songs (2nd and 3rd) are exquisite.

[Papy Oli]

JS Bach - Partita No.1 BWV 1002 (Grumiaux)

[Carlo Gesualdo]

Listening to one of my favorite Ars Subtilior CD of all time feauturing all Solage work almost and  Machaut bold and daring quasi ars subtilior music, it's called: The unknow Lover song by Solage and Machaut, perform by Gothic Voice, this is sos super joy  that everlasting

This hovered over my turntable but decided on safer option (Symphonie Concertante). After your positive recommendation I will actually play "Song of the Night".

A fine choice.
