New arrival today - a Todd recommendation in this thread recently:

Byrd, William (1543-1623) - Pavans, Galliards, Variations, & Grounds on 2-CDs w/ Daniel-Ben Pienaar on piano - enjoying as much as another recent acquisition, Kit Armstrong performing Byrd-Bull on piano.  Some reviews attached including Todd's comments for those interested.  Dave

My all time favourite Op 111

[Mapman]

Hanson: Symphony #6
Schwarz: Seattle

I've listened to this once or twice, but not for a few years. It's great! I especially liked the 2nd and 3rd movements (of 6), since they contain the most beautiful moments. Hanson seems to be a composer who understands the beauty of simplicity. The final movement is very exciting.

My suits cost less, never mind my shirts. But there are dedicated sellers of LV secondhand stuff, so you might get lucky.

Morning listening on Spotify:



A recording by Diabolus in Musica I wasn't familiar with!

[SimonNZ]

On the radio: Beethovens Piano Sonata no.3 performed by Dierdre Irons.

Earlier on the radio I heard Bach's Violin Sonatas performed by Johana Martzy, with a gushing commentary by the announcer who had only just now stumbled on her catalogue.

Another run of this:



Though I fully understand the sceptics on Van Asperen's ornamental approach, I find this more engaging and fascinating with each listening. This recording is certainly growing on me.
