What sun, I don't see any sun outside my window!

That's why I played it! (It's raining here...)

[The new erato]

That's why I played it! (It's raining here...)

Then play this:

Working a bit in the garden, the promised rain from Johan came in, and for me nothing else to do than listen again.
But at least I've got all the leaves grinded  into small pieces as food for the garden.
To stay close at home, I journey again through this box with 20 organ cd's.

Henning, Out in the Sun

    ← Eyewear necessitated by sunshine.

[J.Z. Herrenberg]

Then play this:

Too late - the rain has stopped. 

   ← Eyewear necessitated by sunshine.

Karl - Out in the Sun remains a wonderfully athletic and joyous piece. I don't know how you manage the suppleness and lightness. The music creates its own temporal space.

Thank you kindly, Johan.  Writing the piece was something of a dream . . . it feels as if I danced, and when I stopped still, the piece was written.

Thank you kindly, Johan.  Writing the piece was something of a dream . . . it feels as if I danced, and when I stopped still, the piece was written.

Well, the inspiration is obvious.

Now I am curious! Downloads?

Birthday celebration?

(Re: François Couperin) Happy coincidence!

[Harry]

Dutch Organs, Volume XX.
Works by: Jan Albert van Eijken, Jan Zwart, Cornelis Frederik Hendriks jr., Cor Kint, Louis Vierne, Hendrik Andriessen, Joseph Bonnet, Franz Liszt, Leos Janacek, Joseph Jongen, Cesar Auguste Franck

The last one from this box. I began listening to this box on 15-9-2007, and ended it 10-11-2008.
And from the first to last this is a winner, I have not one complain, safe that I know that the producer of this set could well fill a hundred or so cd's with the same quality. It is recorded, so maybe released in the future.

Now:

[Bulldog]

Bob van Asperen playing Bach's French Suites on Aeolus.  Excellent performances marred by a very wet acoustic.

[Sergeant Rock]

Sir John's RVW 5




Sarge

Now I am curious! Downloads?

Can be found here, Paul. (Did I not send that to you?)

Over the weekend, a friend duplicated (with recordings) the recent live concert in Berlin that Alex Ross describes here.  The slight twist was playing two different recordings of Gruppen.  I found the more recent recording (with WDR Koln) had slightly more punch and clarity; the earlier Berlin one seemed more tied to say, Debussy.  Great piece!  I'd never heard it before.

Messiaen: Et Exspecto Resurrectionem Mortuorum (Orchestre du Domaine Musical/Boulez)
Stockhausen: Gruppen (Berlin/Goldman, Abbado, Creed)
Stockhausen: Gruppen (WDR Köln/Tamayo, Eötvös, Mercier)
