Mozart

Symphony No.41 "Jupiter"  in one word....... superb!

Hi Karl, I first heard this recording today after a recommendation on another forum by a member who is also a composer who regards this is one of Adams' best works.
It is a very inviting work that immediately attracts attention, the music passes you like a movie, at least if you have any imagination. :)
It is a very accessible composition  and clearly in an American tradition, the melody formation in particular.
I think it is a very beautiful work with pastoral quiet moments.
Colorful is also one of the keywords and an appealing rhythmic pulse that feels beneficial.
The whole has a very positive optimistic view.


you have a PM

Thanks, indeed!

Some of the commentators accents were quite..broad too! I was quite happy to have learnt the expression "Missing the Granny" but given your team's result today, that now feels quite untimely  :-[  0:)


Well I don't think I'd ever heard "Missing the Granny" until Friday night either...

Interesting! The Mathis symphony is the only Hindemith which I really like. I have an old DGG LP with Hindemith conducting.

Bernstein also recorded a great Symphony in E Flat.

I had this problem with chrome on Windows. Check to see whether you have downloaded any extensions which you don't need. It was an extension which was causing the problem in my case.
