[SonicMan46]

A nice and interesting composer that crossed my path through the fortepiano sonatas set by Colladant.
Later added the recording of the string quartets.

      

Que - I have just 2 CDs of Laure Collandant and would love that box but cannot see a source!     Own 8 recordings of Woelfl including the SQs you posted plus the ones w/ the Authentic Quartet, would also like to obtain the Quatuor Mosaiques but the price is a little much for me.  Dave

Endlessly fascinating textures, from the solo flute to oboe, clarinet and bassoon trio to full wind quintet. Works composed between 1975 and 1991.

Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach: Hamburg Symphonies, Wq. 183. Didier Talpain, Solamente Naturali

This is an excellent disc. I don't know anything about the Solamente Naturali ensemble but they sound excellent.

[Symphonic Addict]

I need to check that one out, apparently

You won't regret, Karl. It does deserve to be heard.

[Symphonic Addict]

Pergolesi: Stabat Mater
Gouvy: Symphonies 1 and 2

I think I prefer the recording on DG featuring Abbado and the LSO on the Pergolesi.

Revisiting Gouvy's symphonies. Charming, easygoing, joyful. Nothing but sheer bliss.

An incredible work. The second movement has a so haunting otherworldly atmosphere. I'm very impressed. I wonder if John knows this work.

NP:

Vaughan Williams
Symphony No. 5 in D
LPO
Boult



I've been feeling a bit down today, but Vaughan Williams' 5th always manages to soothe my soul. An important work in my early classical listening and it's still important for me. A masterpiece.

Repeat listen to this CD which I highly recommend.
