Oh dear. First Sibelius, now Copland. What's wrong with you? You will end up playing Stockhausen and Boulez  8)

Quite right! I don't know what has gotten into me.  ???

I'll hurry back to the safe zone, occupied by the Baroque Forces.

It's all Canon in D from here on!  ;)

[About Bernstein Mass:]

Youth sentiment, happy to hear it again

By purchasing the Harmonia Mundi Sacred Music box recently, I became proud owner of the Kent Nagano performance of Bernstein's Mass. I'll give it a spin soon, although I've got no idea what to expect...

Booked a trip to the happy island of Malta, next year, and am preparing now by playing these jolly Maltese Dances and other playful tunes by Maltese composers Charles Camilleri, John Galea and Josie Mallia Pulvirenti.

Is that the Etudes tableaux? What do you think?

I recall a few years back having him and Ogdon (on Testament) to choose from. I chose Ogdon and was very happy.

You chose wisely. The Ogdon is better.

I would be interested in knowing if Boulez is using the score from Nowak or the Haas.  Do the notes indicate this?
