What are you listening 2 now?

[Que]

One of my favourite albums by Paul O'Dette!

It was issued back in 1987 (Nonesuch) and I only discovered it streaming, since it has been long out of print. Hard to find on disc for a reasonable price on this side of the pond. I ordered this new (after 38 years!) from Amazon US, which collects the EU VAT with the order so no import hassle.

A Dutch organ this time, and quite a change from the Gabler in Weingarten.

[Florestan]

I was kind of disappointed by the first two discs, so I decided to try it backwards: discs 13, 12, 11. I must say I liked them much better.

Bach


Triple Concerto BWV 1044

Frans Brüggen Traverso
Marie Leonhardt Violin
Leonhardt Consort/Gustav Leonhardt Harpsichord

[Florestan]

I was kind of disappointed by the first two discs, so I decided to try it backwards: discs 13, 12, 11. I must say I liked them much better. 

TBH, in the last 72 hours my Francophilia skyrocketed, from reasons completely extra-musical. I'd rather be wrong with Voltaire than right with George Simion... 

(please bear with me, messieurs moderateurs, the situation in Romania is really stressful, so allow me some venting...)

Bach

CD 3

[Spotted Horses]

I overindulged this morning. Weinberg String Quartet No 1, 5.

The first quartet, in C major, defied the associations with the key signature. Tense music, an early work that was revised late in Weinberg's life. No 5 a bit more open and confident. Both enjoyed.



Lutyens Music for Piano and Orchestra. Wallen Piano Concerto.



Neither of these made a strong impression. The Lutyens went over my head. Atonal plunking. Serial music is fine, but I don't get on with music which has no discernible rhythm. The Wallen was attractive, but too pleasant.
