Neat trick, DavidRoss, so I stole it!

George, lol!

David, I think Bill meant he wanted a link to support the assertion (though I could certainly be wrong, yet another time!), not a link for the recording. :)

Click on image, Bill!


No, no.  David read my mind perfectly, owlice...which is downright scary on a number of levels. ;D  I now remember this recording.  I believe Harry and others championed it many moons ago on this board.  I am so happy with my Wallfisch set that I am yet to pull the trigger on this one.  I will keep an eye out for it though.  Too many folks whose opinions I value are enjoying this recording for me to deny a try.

Indeed... Luchesi and Righini at their best!  ;D

I have Wallfisch in the Haydn VCs and in Bach's Sonatas for Violin and Harpsichord, she's pretty good. :)

And I will spin some Manze/AAM as a follow up, David(s):

Mozart -- symphonies 38 & 41.  The more I hear from Abbado, the more I admire him.  Without going through the catalog to tote things up, I suspect that he was at the helm for more recordings that I cherish of more different works by more different composers in more different time periods than any other single conductor.  These new Mozart recordings of selected symphonies and the VCs with Carmignola seem likely to become favorites as well. 

I plan to follow these with another recent acquisition that just arrived in the post:  Schumann's Kreisleriana and  Op 17 Fantasie played by Evgeny Kissin.

Yet another check in the "WRONG" column for me today. Dang!

Should have figured that David had the mindreading thing going on again!

Has Mrs. Ross heard them and what is her opinion if so?

Wildly tangential . . . but I hear that Mrs Ross has responded very kindly to the 24 June recital.

With all this talk of #38....



This recording offers extreme clarity in its sound.  Pat on the back to those at Denon that made this happen.
