I couldn't attend the local orchestra's performance on Beethoven's 9th.  I'm glad I didn't buy tickets.  I had to be up earlier than usual for extra work.

But I'll make up for it now by listening to Dausgaard's LvB 9:

Based on 15 second listening to the first track, that is amazing!

The harmonies in the last minute of that opening D major prelude are extraordinary! And the change of registration halfway through the chorale on the following track is magical. Don't have much more time to listen tonight, but a very promising start, great recommendation, @DavidW!

Funny enough I found that set because I loved the Bach in Solaris and I listened to literally every single recording I could find to identify the one had the most emotional resonance with me. This as the one. But the whole set is great!

Dvořák: String Quartet No. 1 (Zemlinsky Quartet). At my request, an acquaintance sent me his doctoral thesis on the 14 string quartets, so I'm going to listen to those that I don't know that well, and dip into his comments. Like many people, I've heard No. 12 (the "American") more than the others, so I want to remedy that.

So far, No. 1 is as charming as any of them.

The opening melody of No. 10 has recently become one of my favorite moments in all music. A tune that captures such a specific, complex, relaxed but wistful and a little sad emotion - like the best things, it stands outside of the realm of words.

But you have eight more to go before then! Enjoy!

Well, based on this comment — coupled with Fate and whim — they may be listened to in non-chronological order. 

I am pretty sure I've never heard No. 10.

No.5 and 6 from this excellent set. Great playing, and the sound is very good...if a little too reverberant.

Anton Webern
Passacaglia
Symphony

Herbert von Karajan & Berliner Philharmoniker

That set is an all-around fave!


Earlier today...

...and then...a MIDI realization of the latest revision of the Finale to Bruckner's Ninth Symphony, which will soon be played several times this year and next year (See Bruckner's Abbey for the latest news.)

If I liked the first volume of Hickox's Hummel series, I'm into this second volume even more.

I think he's an author, too.

Scriabin sonatas. Igor Zhukov.

Yun: Concertino for accordion and string quartet

One of the most interesting pieces that feature the accordion I have ever heard. Yun's lyricism could be a little coarse or tough, but I like it.

Haydn: String Quartet Op. 77/2
Festetics

The middle movements are especially wonderful.

[Bachtoven]

Beethoven's late sonatas receive tremendous performances captured in excellent sound.
