In many video files I uploaded there's a small box with a C (crossed with a vertical line, as in alla breve)
on the upper right corner of the screen. Do you know what does it mean?

It's a classical TV channel in Europe: http://www.unitel.de/unitel_homepage/unitel/classica/index.htm

Does it still exist? A lot of the videos I have also were recorded from there. I so wish we had something like that in the states, classical concerts are hardly ever on TV here.

Could you finally listen to Rostropovich?

No, my girlfriend wanted to "talk."

By request from Manuel-

Jean Sibelius - The Symphonies
Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra
Esa-Pekka Salonen, conductor

With the Sibelius cycles coming up this fall, here is an upload of
the symphonies on video with Esa-Pekka Salonen and the Swedish Radio
Symphony Orchestra.

These were recorded over the period of 1987-1998, produced by Sveriges
Television and staged in the Berwaldhallen in a studio setting.

They have been broadcast on European arts channels, and it seems most
of these were digitally recorded from Italian TV. Description:

http://www.nbdtv.com/frames_main/product.asp?ProductID=1358

Solid performances, with lovely playing from the SRSO,
and an expansive, strong Kullervo, with Peter Mattei and Marianne Rørholm.

Symphonies 1-3, and 6, had problems in the audio which I tried my best to repair,
though the 1st had a couple of places where the sound drops out, and
the 6th was overrecorded.

1-3 use this Microsoft codec, from here if you didn't get it with
Windows:

Here's other special page

http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Download-Managers/VDownloader.shtml

with Vdownloader you can download video files from youtube, stage6 and similars.*

When the program is downloaded, you need to go to "settings" and make sure XVID is selected in the "AVI codec" options.

*I'm not sure if it will work on Macs.

But it does work on PCs. I downloaded various documentaries about Andsnes, Ogdon, Freire, Sultanov, Pires, Horszowski and Bernstein. The site has lots of videos ready to be caught with vdownloader (without to-join partitioned files or download restrictions).

Good for you!

(and for us as well, obviously

)

Mark · October 03, 2007, 02:33:28 PM

Right, I've uploaded Proms Nos. 1, 6, 7, 11 & 19 (so far), all of which can be downloaded from here.

Check this folder regularly over the next couple of months, as I still have Proms Nos. 33, 43, 44, 60, 62, 65, 66, 69 & 72 to upload.

Enjoy.

bhodges · October 03, 2007, 02:39:58 PM

Wow, thanks, Mark!

Just looked at the BBC's website for program information and those concerts have some great stuff in them...

I captured as many Proms concerts as I could, Bruce. Our PVR has only two tuners. Sometimes, both were occupied (and my wife wouldn't let me scrub something she wanted to record

), so I could only grab a certain number of concerts - 14 in all from this year's season. I can't yet verify the quality of what's left to prepare for upload, as there were occasional data breaks which might mar some performances (we live in a poor signal area

).
