Op 13.

[Madiel]

Oh look, why not... Medtner op.9. Three skazki, which take less time than the two in op.8.



Though op.9/1 is again pretty knotty.

[ritter]

Did you know the work, Wanderer? What do you think of it?

IMHO, un chef d'oeuvre absolu!

14/2.

[brewski]

Schubert: The Shepherd on the Rock (Benita Valente, soprano / Donald Wright, clarinet / Rudolf Serkin, piano). This 1961 recording must be some kind of classic, between the artistry of these three.

Palestrina: Missa Papae Marcelli

Dufay Ensemble

[ritter]

First listen to this recent purchase:



I've long admired Montemezzi's operatic output (L'amore dei tre re, La Nave, L'incantesimo), but this is my first exposure to his symphonic works. The Symphony in E minor sounds very Germanic, but is rather enjoyable.

Myaskovsky Symphony No 3 & Lyric Concertino Olympia cd Symphonies 5 & 11 Olympia cd

 

I think I've finally been infected by the Myaskovsky virus?! (If I may call it that? No offence intended!) I've had the Russian Disc,Olympia & Marco Polo cds of the Sixth for some time & I've known No 21 via the old Unicorn recording for decades! It was only fairly recently that I decided to persevere with the Sixth. Even more recently,I saw a cheap s/h copy of No 3 (& the Lyric Concertino) but decided to grit my teeth and resist the cd of No 5 which was a few pounds more.

So much for willpower! I didn't last long! 

Only 22 Myaskovsky symphonies to go........and no,leaving the GMG Forum & going into hiding doesn't stop you buying cds! On the contrary,I don't think I've ever bought so many!!

I was just casually scrolling through this thread and...wow! What a wonderful surprise to see the name "cilgwyn" pop up on my screen! Welcome back to GMG, my friend, and I hope to hear more from you!

[Linz]

I enjoyed reading many of his posts when he was actively contributing several years ago, some of them being exhilarating.

[Karl Henning]

IOW the cat did eat them.

Darn that cat, anyway!

A bit early for Advent music perhaps...

Great disc!
