Via NML.

I think I won't purchase this 2 CD-set. Some weird ritardandi and a general slowness, do these lax performances a quite boring experience.

The name of la claveciniste is not the only thing that sounds French here. I thought I was listening to Couperin.

Outstanding disc, Greg! And good morning!

Outstanding disc, Greg! And good morning!

It is, Karl, and a good morning to you.

Quartet Babes in Locker Rooms

Well, that's verging on fetishistic....but I'm sure it would appeal to some. Count me in

Good morning/day, all!

And if you can't stand the heat, get Haydn out of the kitchen . . . .

I didn't know Ives wrote "When the moon hits your eyes like a big pizza pie, that's amore." I'll be damned.

Thread duty: Haydn String Quartet D major Op.76/5, the Minetti Quartet.

When the stars shine so keen on the Housatonic's sheen, you're in love . . . .

Ives version is transcribed for Woodblock, Wordless Choir, Across the Street Orchestra(a little further than off-stage), The Solar System, Insurance Documents and Narrator.

I googled "quartet babes" and found this. Is it fetishistic enough? 

[Karl Henning]

Ives version is transcribed for Woodblock, Wordless Choir, Across the Street Orchestra(a little further than off-stage), The Solar System, Insurance Documents and Narrator.

Accuracy, please, Greg: shredded insurance documents (Ives was ahead of his time).

And probably ends with a huge raspberry 

"That's amore! PPPFFFTTTTTT!!!!"

One of my favourite composers, of which I buy as much as is recorded, and this one in particular ignites my fantasy in many ways. A unique voice, that has actually something new to say. The performances could not be bettered, as also the recording, both are superb.

King Lear, Symphonic Poem, opus 20.

Symphony No. 1, opus 23 in G major.
