Que, I see nothing on your #57906.


NP:



Scarlatti: Keyboard Sonatas

Scott Ross (harpsichord)


A very straight-faced, unyielding, unvaried sort of approach, but I found myself enjoying the music rather a lot, so obviously something right was happening. Will be returning to see if I feel the same in a different mood.

Bach: Christmas Oratorio Part V For the Sunday after New Year - Nikolaus Harnoncourt conducting Concentus Musicus Wien, Arnold Schoenberg Choir & soloists

[aligreto]

Saint-Saens: Clarinet Sonata [Nash Ensemble]





The gentle rolling music of the opening part of the movement is wonderfully and expressively played. The second part of the movement is a sparkling affair. When the tone and mood changes in the second movement the musicians adapt wonderfully to portray the dark and sombre, plaintive and sombre music. This really is exquisite. The musicians continue in the same vein in the third movement and create an even darker tone. The final movement is both a sparkling and an exciting affair.

Odd, it shows up for me. Anyway, that is indeed the one! 

A fabulous lute recording.

Disc 2.

Mahler: Symphony No. 10 [Tennstedt]





Mahler only performs the Adagio. His interpretation of this sublime music can be quite bleak in places. It is also tinged with the requisite sense of resignation but I am also hearing something of a sense of hopelessness and despair about it too. The strings are rich, powerful and full.

Cheers, Que.

Note: The cover picture depicts the Gottfried Silbermann organ, St. Georg's church, Rötha, and not the Flentrop organ (1976) of the Duke University Chapel, which looks much like the Müller organ, St, Bavo, Haarlem.

You're right! The Duke Chapel organ does look like that Müller, which is a gorgeous one, and sounds amazing (I have Piet Kee playing Bach on that organ on CD). Even more reason to make the drive to hear it

Are you talking about the Decca/Wiener Philharmoniker recordings?

Are you talking about the Decca/Wiener Philharmoniker recordings?

No, I'm referring to his Berliner recordings of Strauss from 70s (but also the late 60s) on DG.
