Rodrigo: Fantasía para un gentilhombre for Guitar and Orchestra (John Williams - guitar)

[asin]B0000026YM[/asin]

I've never owned that disc, but I'm sure I've heard all the recording! : )

Love the Albéniz, in particular!

Now:

Listening to Symphony No. 2. Outstanding.

Braga Santos I always find strong in revisitation.

[karlhenning]

Hindemith: Der Schwanendreher - voting against it and wanted to remind myself of the work, yes, I still don't like it.

Pity! I first heard it as a wee undergrad, and I loved it form the start. For the Kammermusiken, too, I'll pound the table any day.

Thanks for the early Saturday chuckle, mon cher!

Was just shipped yesterday to me  , saw some inspiring words about The Spirit of England in the Elgar thread, so I had to get it.
For thread duty, and I know Sarge will appreciate this, I'll listen to Elgar: Symphony No. 2 in E flat major, Op. 63 - Giuseppe Sinopoli / Philharmonia Orchestra

[Coco]

[The new erato]

[Mirror Image]

Braga Santos I always find strong in revisitation.

That's the thing I have found too, Karl. Each time I come back to Braga Santos the music has even more appealing for me.

[J.Z. Herrenberg]

Offenbach: Les Brigands:

Thanks for the quotations. Very good!

Thumping some tub this afternoon.

and I know Sarge will appreciate this, I'll listen to Elgar: Symphony No. 2 in E flat major, Op. 63 - Giuseppe Sinopoli / Philharmonia Orchestra

Indeed...my favorite Elgar 2

A little Messiaen goes a long way with me, but Oiseaux Exotiques here really is a lot of fun.
