Shostakovich: Symphony No. 14 In G Minor, Op. 135



First listen to this recently arrived set, have been looking forward to it! - Starting with Symphony No. 14, which is one of the few works Ive heard from Shostakovich that I havent really warmed to yet  :).

One minute ago I have finished the Symphony N°7 "Leningrad", with Rudolf Barshai and the WDR Sinfonieorchester. What a wonderfully hypnotic symphony!   :)

Slightly depressing sound quality, but the Suk (Ripening) is a stunning piece. Why aren't there more 40 minute long tone poems? :P

Love HIP and non-HIP as long as they are both played well, Stuart.  And speaking of HIP, taking in this concert tomorrow afternoon given by the Baroque Chamber Orchestra of Colorado, who strictly is HIP:

Mozart, Three Church Sonatas

Haydn, String Quartet in D major, op 50 no 6 "The Frog"

Haydn, Trio in G Minor 

Mozart, Eine Kleine Nachtmusik (A Little Night Music)

Nice! I'm very much into lute music as well, lately! :) What's the label on that recording, Dave? :)

Hi Q - on the Dorian label; description at their website HERE - wonderfully recorded and I like the combination of the lute w/ the violin & cello.  Dave

Very nice line up, Bill. Get back to me if you'd like a rec. for Mozart's Church Sonatas after the concert. :)

Enjoy!

We'll do. Do not know what I have for HIP of each on the shelf.  I believe I have all the pieces, but the Haydn one is a mystery because it does not have a number posted with it on their web page.  Did he not write at least two string trios in G?

Marais, Marin (1656-1728) - Pieces en Trio w/ Musica Pacifica - recommended on the forum by Harry, I believe, and my first CD(s) of this French Baroque composer.  The works are basically French dance suites played by four to seven musicians on various period instruments, including recorders, oboe, viola da gamba, archlute, and harpsichord.  Highly recommended bargain package for those interested in this genre of music - brief but outstanding reviews on their website HERE  -  :D
