Morning listening:

Good morning Que!

One of my favourite discs by the Huelgas ensemble.

[foxandpeng]

Interesting RS and now, perhaps, we have a more balanced view of DLJ. One recording of his that I do think highly of is his Bax Symphony No.6, far preferable IMO to Del Mar's Lyrita recording.

Now playing Bax 6. My introduction to Bax was entirely through DLJ's symphony cycle, and was my only copy, for years. I can't help thinking of them as the way Bax should be performed, even though I now have access to other, more critically lauded versions. I think familiarity carries a great deal of weight for me.

Good morning Que!

One of my favourite discs by the Huelgas ensemble.

It is. And I have a soft spot for the Huguenots and music of the French Reformation anyway.

I'm thankful that the Huelgas Ensemble has been so prolific in recording the past years - Van Nevel is in his mid 70s now...

That recording of No.6 is arguably the best there is.

Franck

Lekeu

Thus came recommended by Mandryka.
On Spotify of course - finding this on disc is probably very hard.



Adriaan Willaert did a very nice job with these Verdelot pieces, Sir Mandryka!

[Madiel]

Starting the "Beethoven around the World" series.

Back at op.131 again the next night, as to be honest listening to it straight after another quartet was a little difficult to take in. It's a masterpiece, but it's a very strange masterpiece and not something I find suitable for casual listening.

[vers la flamme]

Silvius Leopold Weiss: Passacaille. Julian Bream

This is a beautiful work. Amazing performance from the late Julian Bream. I need to hear more Weiss.

[Papy Oli]

Good afternoon all.

Some Bach/Herreweghe for now.

[Mandryka]

Thus came recommended by Mandryka.
On Spotify of course - finding this on disc is probably very hard.



Adriaan Willaert did a very nice job with these Verdelot pieces, Sir Mandryka! 

Yes I played it two or three times this week, I love it.

[VonStupp]

Ludwig van Beethoven
SQ 1, 2, 3, op. 18
Alban Berg Quartett (rec. 1980 & 81)

Next up:

With the mother-in-law staying here this weekend and a kid sick at home, that means it is time to sit down with Beethoven's String Quartets!

Romantic guitar music!

Note that, as discussed, this not quite what is says on the box:  it is basically a Spanish (mainly) Baroque collection with José Miguel Moreno as a solist or accompanist playing the vihuela or the guitar, or as a director. There are several discs with songs. However, this suits my own purposes just fine: these are top shelf performances of unique repertoire.

[Que]

Yes I played it two or three times this week, I love it.

I would buy the recording, if it would be available at a decent price.

But preferably the entire Willaert edition on Stradivarius would be reissued in a nice slim boxset...

One can dream, no? 

[Dry Brett Kavanaugh]

I think he's an excellent conductor.  His Bliss Colour Symphony is my favorite.  Groves would be my second favorite.

Yes that's an excellent disc. I appreciate your response and other members' comments. For me, I like the discs below.

the Moeran was done "on the day" instead of some other cancelled repertoire -

Unbelievable!!
