[Symphonic Addict]

Eloquent. This is the most suitable word I can use to describe Martin's Cello Concerto.

[Symphonic Addict]

Piano Concerto

Some of the best Wirén I've heard lately.

[aligreto]

Hi Fergus,do you have the complete set,sound's very attractive.

Yes, I bought the 16 CD set recently and I find it absolutely wonderful.

[Brahmsian]

Yes, I bought the 16 CD set recently and I find it absolutely wonderful.

I'm going to have to listen to it again, as it has been awhile. Seeing your posts makes me want to ditch my other listening projects and go to Myaskovsky. 

[Traverso]

Yes, I bought the 16 CD set recently and I find it absolutely wonderful.

Hi Fergus,I did the same,probably next week I will have mine.

   

[Stürmisch Bewegt]

I totally approve, endorse and applaud the Miaskovsky Movement proliferating so prominently in recent posts.

Arguably the finest Brahms Piano Quintet, Op. 34, I have ever heard.  Both driven and sensitive.  An extraordinary performance, IMO.

[bhodges]

Dipping into Handel's Teseo, from Juilliard Opera. This production is apparently not the entire show, but a selection of arias, lasting roughly 1 hour, 45 minutes. Conductor is Gary Thor Wedow, with Stephen Wadsworth directing, singers from Juilliard, and the early music ensemble, Juilliard415. In my Handel-challenged opinion ( ), worth a look.

It is complete new territory for me

[Symphonic Addict]

I'm not ashamed to claim that this is one of my all-time favorite compositions. I feel fully involved in its epic journey. This performance is so clean, convincing and detailed. Everything went quite well here.

A work for a desert island.

[Daverz]

Excellent tonal works.  Standford studied with Rubbra.

[Symphonic Addict]

Excellent tonal works.  Standford studied with Rubbra.

Certainly looks nice.

Lindberg: From the Great Forests

An evocative piece that reminded me a little of Atterberg.




Lajtha: In Memoriam

Dedicated to the victims of the Second World War. A sort of funeral march of significant gravitas. It seems it's gonna reach an important climax at some point, but it never happens properly.

Schubert, D568 in E flat, Badura-Skoda (70s version)

[vandermolen]

Quite different from Rachmaninov but enough similarities I think those who enjoy R will like this.

Yes, I agree Jeffrey - it's a very enjoyable disc.

[vandermolen]

Rota's Symphony No. 3 is an enjoyable, frolicsome work, with a very beautiful slow movement.

Thanks Cesar.

Piano Concerto

I've been recently enjoying Wiren's 3rd Symphony in particular.
