I love his imperious stance! And his playing is phenomenal.

Scriabin: Poem of Ecstasy (Alain Altinoglu / Frankfurt Radio Symphony, live recording, October 17, 2022). Altinoglu really wasn't on my radar until these Frankfurt broadcasts, but now, 100% yes. Gorgeous playing, gorgeous sound.

  Dvorak: String Quartets Nos  6-7



Panocha Quartet

Morning listening. A rerun, with time for more attentive listening.



A late Renaissance approach to early Renaissance music, but I'm still quite enjoying this.

[Papy Oli]

Good morning all,

Slowly progressing through the Harnoncourt/Leonhardt cantata cycle.

BWV 31-33

[Tsaraslondon]

A trio of Estonian works conducted by a trio of Estonians, father and sons in fact. Dad gets the Kapp, whilst his elder son, Paavo, gets the Pärt and younger son Kristjan gets the Tubin.

Worth every penny I didn't pay for it.

A late friend of mine used to sometimes give me for Christmas a CD in the form of a competition, not telling me till afterwards what I was listening to. I pulled one out to listen to today. Some lovely music here, though, needless to say, I didn't guess any of them.

Arthur Meulemans: May Night - Moscow Symphony Orchestra - Frédéric Devreese
Jacques Ibert: Le Jardinier de Samos - Overture, Danse, Preludes to Acts 3, 4 & 5 - Ensemble Instrumental Jean-Walter Audoli
William Blezard: Overture "Caramba" - Royal Ballet Sinfonia - Barry Wordsworth
Gabriel Pierné: Scherzo caprice, Op 25 - Stephen Coombs (piano), BBC Scottish SO - Ronald Corp
Arthur Bliss: Pastoral " Lie Strewn The White Flocks" - Nancy Evans (mezzo), Gareth Morris (flute), Jacques Sting Orchestra - Reginald Jacques
Henri Tomasi : Concerto for Horn - Martin Hackeman (horn), CBC Vancouver Orchestra - Mario Bernardi
Malcolm Williamson: Agnus Dei - performers unknown, he forgot to say.

My friend was something of a Francophile musically and had extremely eclectic taste, as you can see,

I remember after I bought this, must be over a decade ago, I was completed smitten by it. But now I immediately picked up on Caroline Pelon's unsteady vocal contributions, which don't do the wonderful and cleverly constructed programming justice.

What a coincidence, it was also the reason why I culled this recording from my collection in 2021, after a rehearing.

[Harry]

Decided today at six O clock in the morning to play the whole set in one go, while working on a project, which I also will finish.
It struck me what a fine collection of music Belder put together, and the excellent performances he is giving us. A very good move by Brilliant to release this.

Quite an original present and a lovely way to celebrate the memory of a late friend.

Antonín Dvořák
String Quartet 13 in G Major, op. 106
Panocha Quartet

As in my run of his symphonies, there is a point where everything Dvořák throws at you is going to be a masterpiece. I sense that starting with SQ13 as I did beginning with Sym7; masterfully crafted music.

In recent days:

And...

thanks! I like this music!

The other three movements should be available on the right.

I am pleased that you enjoyed this presentation of Verklärte Nacht.
I would also be curious to know what you thought of their interpretation of the Chamber Symphony No. 1 (arr. Webern).

I loved it, such a splendid version, really impressive and captivating! Schönberg's Chamber Symphony No.1 is a very brilliant composition that, despite a continuous harshness, a colourful timbric variety and melodious and harmonic metamorphosis, shows a stunning balance among the instruments, and Webern's arrangement expresses beautifully those peculiarities in a even more concise ensemble.

Deutsche Barock Kantaten (III)


This third volume is very special (for me) because of the special part of Greta de Reyghere in "Es ist g'nug"





This the same box for a very good price
