I am interested, but this is probably a full priced recording, right?

[Coopmv]

Relax, Marc.

Ordered.

This is all I managed to find ...

Yes, but not excessively expensive. I bought my copy on JPC. Currently its price is EUR 14.99.

Alkan: Concerto for Solo Piano (Ogdon)

Wonderfully spirited recording! I still marginally prefer the Hamelin. But this one is nice to have!

[The new erato]

But this one is nice to have!

Nice to have is what sinks the boat.

That is why I am always on land. But the camel's back is another matter...

Perhaps, just this one straw, Paul? . . .

A stunning treasure of by-gone days of early HIP!

And still going strong IMO.



Q

Q,  I always try to collect EVERY Elly Ameling's Bach recording I can find but cannot find this CD on the US Amazon website.  Is the CD only available in Europe?

[Harry]

Some days ago I ordered from JPC two budget priced CD'S from the composer Kurt Atterberg. His Violin concerto, Varmlands Rhapsody, Overture opus 4, Rhapsody for Piano and Orchestra, opus 1, Piano Concerto, opus 37, and the Ballade and Passacaglia opus 38. Two CD'S.
Today I play The Rhapsody for Piano and Orchestra opus 1, and the opus 37 & 38.
Love Derwinger on the piano, lets the music flow in a magical way, as a dream, colourful and fully aware of the potential of the notes. The Radio Philharmonie Hannover des NDR, Ari Rasilainen conducting is the perfect accompaniment for Derwinger, together they create a fine balance in which the music blossoms.
Perfect recording and ditto performance.

Now playing this SACD from my baroque collection ...

Maybe it's my display monitor, but I can't always (mostly not) read the albums you post.

If it wouldn't be too much trouble, would you mind so much captioning your images with the title and performers of the recordings?

This new post should help ...

Now playing CD2 - works by William Lawes from this set, which arrived recently ...

Q,  I always try to collect EVERY Elly Ameling's Bach recording I can find but cannot find this CD on the US Amazon website.  Is the CD only available in Europe?

Q,  Never mind.  I found this CD listed under Collegium Aureum and not by Elly Ameling.  The search on Amazon is not always effective ...

This cd arrived today, and I was so curious, that I even play it on my computer drive, for today its St Maarten, a feast whereby children go by the door, sing a song, while a self made light shines in front of their little faces, and when they are ready, receive some sweet candy. So I must run to the front door quite often, hence the computer drive.
Varmlands Rhapsody opus 36 is again a magical work, that has me spellbound, followed by the top notch Violin Concerto, opus 7, that moves me deeply, and as a topping the Overture opus 4 in the fine A minor key.
Excellent performances and recording.

Harry,  I should check out this CD.  I already have the Atterberg Complete Symphonies.  So the Feast of St Maarten is similar to the widely celebrated Halloween in the US when children go door to door looking for candies.

Two Dutton recordings of the Manchester Camerata, the first bought for the sake of Lennox Berkeley's Antiphon for strings (1973), the second for that of Arnold Cooke's Divertimento for recorder and strings (1959).

Both actually filled to the edge with rare, often world premiere, recordings of highly enjoyable pieces by British and UK based composers (e.g. Franz Reizenstein, Elis Pehkonen). Wonderful repertoire, highly recommended.
