Looks interesting - how is it? 

Q

[The new erato]

Auric's extremely fine violin sonata from this disc with a silly cover:

 

Bought for a song from jpc.

Decided to dedicate more time to old favourites that I haven't heard in a long time...

 

Q

[Maestro267]

Mathias: Lux Aeterna
Lott (soprano), Cable (mezzo-soprano), Walker (contralto), Scott (organ)
Bach Choir, Choristers of St George's Chapel, Windsor
London SO/Willcocks

Haven't listened to this for some time. Wonderful deployment of tuned percussion in places. Like Britten's War Requiem, separate texts are performed by separate ensembles, with the boys' choir accompanied by a small organ.

Yes they are gorgeous. Jean Gilles definitively belongs to that group of composers I admire ardently.

Telemann: Concerti per molti stromenti
Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin

Hey Gordo - sounds like a wonderful recording just in my 'musical sphere'!    Amazon USA has only a MP3 DL for $10 USD - CD available across the pond but not ready to put together a package - of course, my main concern in purchasing digital options is the absence of the liner notes - I'm sure w/ this release, the notes are of interest and instructive - will I miss much w/o the notes?  About to check to see if H. Mundi might offer their notes online (like Hyperion) - thanks for the posting.  Dave

This is one of the hyped recordings of 2017. But I don't "think" it's a good Telemann disc

Thanks Scarpia - my 'search entries' on Amazon USA did not bring up the link above - I'll take a look!  Dave

Anyway, usually downloads include a digital booklet, so there is not problem at all, dear Dave!

Do you have any "reason" to think this way?

Sure. I "believe" that Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin don't play with the "correct" feeling.


a.k.a. Trap to attract actual trolls

[The new erato]

I wasn't aware that there were "correc"t feelings and that anybody had the "correct" definition?

Don't blame yourself. You are doing fine anyway

[Florestan]

Sure. I "believe" that Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin don't play with the "correct" feeling.

In another thread you claimed that performance is a science. Now you make it dependent on the right feeling.

Watched it too. Goes without saying I rooted for Halep but Wozniacky was better (she has an unbelievable mobility) and deserved to win.

Martinu Parables, Ouverture, Rapsody...

24/96. Is this year going to be a good year? 

[Madiel]

Watched it too. Goes without saying I rooted for Halep but Wozniacky was better (she has an unbelievable mobility) and deserved to win.

They were both seriously good. And the semifinal between Halep and Kerber was probably even more amazing than the final. The sheer determination involved is awe-inspiring.

I want this box too (because it's the companion to the one I recently bought) - good?.
