I suppose you don't like snow?  ;D

White is actually among the best colors. The key here is consistency.

The ugliest color is pink. It's hard to make pink look good.
I don't know of any label that is pink. Do you?

Anyway you like Nielsen? You have at least 8 Nielsen CDs that I can see. You must like Nielsen right?

There's probably not pink labels but I have a pink Händel set (Belsazar) on Archiv/Trio.

Of course! Nielsen is one of my favorite symphonists! I have 2 other non-Naxos Nielsen discs: Theatre music (BIS) and choral works (Chandos).
Spatial distortion is a serious problem deteriorating headphone listening.
Crossfeeders reduce spatial distortion and make the sound more natural
and less tiresome in headphone listening.

I have the Nielsen Concertos disc that you have also. Isn't it fabulous? All three concertos onto a CD lasting a tad under 80 minutes for about $6. What do you think about the performances of the symphonies? I don't have those.

I think Naive has a few pink cds. They are not THAT ostentatious since they are tastefully (relatively speaking) pink on white.

Yes, the concerto disc is nice.  0:) I like the symphony perfomances myself but people say better are available. I bought those ~10 years ago.

Really? I have some Astée/Naïve discs and they are even more white than Naxos!

Today I found a very exciting recording of Beethoven's "Choral Fantasy" performed by Walter Klien and the Saint Louis Symphony Chorus

Here are some good Naxos albums (I've heard some or all of each).  My apologies if any of these have already been posted, I don't feel like sifting through 8 pages of posts.  :P

Jeno Jando's Liszt is self-recommending. PM me and I can send you a couple Rhapsodies for sampling purposes, if you like.  ;)
