Quote from: Mandryka on December 18, 2022, 09:34:40 AMThis is one I think @Todd should hear.

I've heard it dozens of times over the years.  I've posted about it multiple times.

Just at the level of "art of modern piano playing" - tone, touch, balance - this is the most impressive Scarlatti CD I can remember hearing. This is one I think @Todd should hear.

[Matisse] was interested neither in fending off opposition,
nor in competing for the favor of wayward friends.
His only competition was with himself. — Françoise Gilot

Mandryka



More Babayan. No indication of what sort of piano he's playing in the liner notes, but he certainly can make a good sound come out of it.

j winter

The man that hath no music in himself,
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils.
The motions of his spirit are dull as night,
And his affections dark as Erebus.
Let no such man be trusted.

-- William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

Morning listening:



Marian motets and the Missa pro defunctis by Johannes Prioris (1460 - c 1514).
One of the earliest surviving requiems and, like that by Antoine Févin, it might have been written for Anne of Brittany's funeral in 1514. A few organ interludes on music by contemporary composers.
