What are you listening 2 now?

[DavidW]

Haydn's 34th-37th.  All great symphonies but I especially love the haunting 34th in D minor.

Lilburn: Symphony No. 3

A mildly interesting work, it's certainly his most modernist symphony.

Lilburn: Symphony No. 3

A mildly interesting work, it's certainly his most modernist symphony.

I didn't really care much for this symphony to be honest. It sounds like he was trying a bit too hard to write in this more modern language and it just doesn't hold together very well for me.

Yes, I find the first two more enjoyable than that one, even if they're a little derivative from Sibelius and VW.

Haydn op.33/4



That's the last of the op.33 recordings revisited. All excellent. Trying their op.76 will be next - I know the pieces well, but not the Mosaiques recordings.

[Tsaraslondon]

Probably the best of Andrew Davis's Vaughan Wiliams symphony cycle. The couplings are pretty good too.

[Tsaraslondon]

It's pretty new (2015). Other recordings are by Leonhardt/Nederlandse Bachvereniging (DHM, 1992) and Savall (Alia Vox, 2017).

I listened to the Lauda recording and didn't like it as much as the Hoban. This could have something to do with the fact that I've known and liked the Hoban for many years now, but weirdly the work sounds much more original with him, even though it's played on modern instruments.

Rameau


I have a great appetite for harpsichord music, the two CDs with music by Rameau more than provide that.
