You're right that Kaler is one of the most decorated violinists of all time. During that stretch when he won the Sibelius, Paganini and Tchaikovsky competitions, he must have been just incredible ... well that's like a Triple Crown or something. Ilya Kaler is the Ted Williams of the violin.  :D

I didn't realize he was that famous. I heard him here in Chicago a few weeks ago at a chamber concert with members of the CSO and didn't like his playing at all. Way too strident. Didn't blend with the group at all.

Well... he is a concert soloist.

Boris Belkin plays the Tchaikovsky concerto


Look at his posture and his fingers. Does anyone here share my idea that if a movie about Paganini was to be shot, Belkin would be perfect for the leading role?

Yes, but a good one ought to know when to lead and when to follow.

Pardon me for unearthing this thread but I do miss it a bit.

I still have links to files uploaded Sept 07-Jan 08 or whereabouts that I never posted here.

Here are a few:

Boleslaw Szabelski - Symphony No. 3
the sound quality leaves a bit to desire but, hey, it's a Szabelski symphony, you're not likely to hear it at a concert or find it on CD!

Marek Stachowski - Choreia for orchestra

Kazimierz Serocki - Symphonic frescoes

Jerzy Kornowicz - Zorze 2 (Dawning Light No. 2)

Jacek Grudzien - Interlude for piano

Brian

I missed this thread too! Glad you revived it sir, I may be posting a few things.  :)

Jacek Grudzien - Ad Naan for cello and electronics (performed live by Andrzej Bauer)

I've always wanted to post this, one of my favorite Polish pieces from recent years, but could never get my hands on a decent enough recording (soundwise). Finally - there it is.

The sample below may give some idea of the sort of piece this is. On the one hand - a sort of very focused, aggressive, mad rush with a steady rhythmic pulsation from beginning to end. On the other - a sort of (equally mad) kaleidoscopic run through various idioms, from popular dance music, through several contemporary classical styles, to folk music (the piece ends with clear allusions to gorale music - at least that's how I hear it):

I just did, 12-tone. Don't you think it would be better if you provide the name of the pieces instead of just the composer? Or is your intention to engage in a name-that-tune game? I'm up for that too. :D

Thank you :)

You are welcome. I'm uploading Hartmann's first symphony now, after that I'll share a Rach 3 with Gabriela Martinez and Gustavo Dudamel, from 2007.

Thanks Croche, I see you subscribed  ;D 

If you look in the info bar to the right (your right) of the video screen, you'll see all the information there: composer info, work in question, performer and record label.  Check again, everything is there  ;)

27 downloads of this in less than 24 hours! An attractive item it seems. The whole concert is available in DVD, as a DG release.
