Quote from: Symphonic Addict on January 27, 2023, 07:33:36 PMSchmidt: Symphony No. 4
Tubin: Symphony No. 10

Two formidable symphonies exceptionally played.

Fully agreed; both their finest recordings available.

Mendelssohn
Quartet № 2 in a minor, Op. 13

Beethoven, LV - Piano Trios w/ the Florestan Trio - have not been in this thread recently (listening to NPR and my jazz CDs), but just bought the book below and am on the Beethoven chapter, so decided to return to the classical music world -

Haydn

I paid more for the import duties for this than the price of the CD

Karl Henning · January 28, 2023, 07:44:15 AM

Mendelssohn
Quartet № 4 in e minor, Op. 44 № 2

Todd · January 28, 2023, 08:01:27 AM

Disc seven, Chopin odds and ends. The Andante spianato et grande polonaise brillante is exceptionally fine.

Mendelssohn
Andante in E, Op. 81 № 1
Scherzo in a minor, Op. 81 № 2

Anyone here explored the elegies? I'm just picking things at random and this Grante CD tickled my fancy.

Quote from: Lisztianwagner on January 28, 2023, 02:56:56 AMInspired by Cesar's post on Schmidt, I'll try this piece I haven't listened to before (as well as all Schmidt's music in general, to tell the truth):

On youtube:
Franz Schmidt
Symphony No.4

Zubin Mehta & Wiener Philharmoniker

What did you think, Ilaria? I'd suspect it's right up your street.

Symphonic Addict · January 28, 2023, 09:27:08 AM

Quote from: vandermolen on January 28, 2023, 12:41:32 AMTwo great choices Cesar! No.10 is my favourite of the later symphonies by Tubin and that's a fine recording of the Schmidt.

Quote from: Christo on January 28, 2023, 07:12:10 AMFully agreed; both their finest recordings available.

Absolutely!

Antonín Dvořák
Scherzo Capriccioso, op. 66
Symphonic Variations, op. 78
Water Goblin, op. 107
Noonday Witch, op. 108
Golden Spinning Wheel, op. 109

London SO - István Kertész (rec. 1963/71/72)

Snowed in at the moment, so I've decided to finish this recording off.

I don't think I knew the Scherzo; it certainly lives up to its titular capriciousness.
