Well well well quite mostly Claudio Monteverdi, the one the only, the genie, visionary, the sundown of renaissance and the starting most be baroque movement birth zero of baroque all does the French and German music at that time in 17th century was bold and audacious which will leed the way toward a more complex or less retro (pick and chose) I'm retro Deprofundis an all soul, that about it here are the album

Reinbert de Leeuw playing Satie

Excellent!
Which reminds me, I recently acquired (gratis) Klára Körmendi's Satie volumes 1-3 on Naxos. Currently spinning these to see if they're worth keeping.

Toivo Kuula: Violin Sonata in E minor, Op. 1

What an opus 1! Intensely romantic and impassionate work. The key of E minor suits perfectly the ardent mood of the work. I liked it very much.




Aram Khachaturian: Violin Sonata

This also possesses drive and lots of energy, yet I didn't detect that typical exotic feel to it Khachaturian used to imprint in his works. Quite good overall.
The current annihilation of a people on this planet (you know which one it is) is the most documented and at the same time the most preposterously denied. The terror IS REAL!

Continuing with this  box
DSCH 7
USSR State TV and Radio  Orchestra
Another live  recording, but from January  1968 with tinny mono sound that's awful.
I like those 'Historical Russian Archive' boxes.
I have the two featuring Gauk and ones featuring Svetlanov and Temirkanov. The Rohdestvensky looks interesting, especially for DSCH Symphony 4.

Just listened to a wonderful work...haunting, driving...and I won't say anything further though I do encourage you to listen to it!  Kabelec's "Mystery of Time" (mentioned elsewhere--Thanks Jeffrey as I've been wanting to explore his work).  I found a wonderful recording with Ancerl on YT here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kxcD0mU9jo

Best wishes,

PD
It's a masterpiece PD and I'm glad you enjoyed it. 'Modern' music with a soul. I'm sorry that it was nor re-recorded for the recent box of Kabeláč's symphonies.

Morning listening - stumbled on it on Spotify, unfamiliar ensemble, (very) odd cover, but surprisingly well done.

Good morning; still in Summer repeat mode:

That's a very nice disc!
Now playing:
Gliere Symphony 3 'Ilya Muromets'
David Hurwitz was right - this is a fine and very atmospheric performance:

Test failed! Only to be bought before one can listen to it. :laugh:

Szymanowski, Etudes, op.4



I haven't listened to this for about 5 years. Apparently for a long time no.3 was easily Szymanowski's most famous piece.
