Stravinsky - Orpheus

Splendid, also the recording, would be in my Top15 Stravinsky ...

Edward Elgar: Sea Pictures, op.37. Janet Baker, John Barbirolli, London Symphony Orchestra.

[Tsaraslondon]

Edward Elgar: Sea Pictures, op.37. Janet Baker, John Barbirolli, London Symphony Orchestra.

An all time classic and, I believe, one of the best selling classical records of all time. I remember when I worked in a record shop in central London back in the day, we had to order in more copies every week.

[MusicTurner]

Absolutely superb, like the other CD completing the Feinberg Piano Sonatas cycle...

[Pohjolas Daughter]

How do you find her music?  I'm not familiar with it.

Off to figure out what to play myself on this gray and gloomy day.

[Florestan]

How do you find her music?  I'm not familiar with it.

It's tuneful and enjoyable, but I find the idea that she was just as gifted as her brother greatly exaggerated.

Johan Halvorsen - Symphonies 1 & 2

Both are amiable but practically nothing substantial. I think the performances have to do with that. Järvi's readings on Chandos are more consistent methinks.

Yes they are!

[SonicMan46]

Mendelssohn, Felix - String Quartets & Octet - the Emerson SQ perform the Octet by 'double recording' themselves and it works fine!  I'll be keeping both of these SQ groups - Dave

Ross Edwards: Symphony 'Da Pacem Domine' - a deeply moving work from 1992 for which, if my memory is correct, I have André of this forum to thank for introducing me to it. It reminds me, in places, of the last part of Allan Pettersson's 7th Symphony:

[Tsaraslondon]

A sprightly and elegant of what has become one of Mozart's most loved Serenades.

[SimonNZ]

What a strange coincidence. That is a favoured CD in my collection. Only yesterday I was pondering whether or not to take it down and put it on my playing schedule. I hope that you enjoyed it.

A first listen, but yes, I can easily see how it could become a favorite.

now:

[Karl Henning]

Piano Concerto

This CPO orchestral series about Hindemith is something to trove.

In oblique solidarity, I've cued up:

[Karl Henning]

Gesualdo

I love this recording.

Yes!

Well, unless I'm losing it already, it's the first time I see this composer or that work, so you owe your thanks to another forum member, methink  .
