Two knights tonight





Followed by Mahler's 4th



And if there's time, some Roussel although that may have to wait until tomorrow

Kempff is a great Mozart pianist, but so is Barenboim.

Anyway, having seen your post earlier in the week, I spotted a CD copy of this today in a local charity shop at 50p - would have been rude not to have bought it!! It's on the player now and sounding great.

Thanks.

On CD

Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 5 in c minor Op. 67
Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Wilhelm Furtwangler
EMI CDC 7 47120 2

Classic mono recording from the 1950's

Furtwangler and Beethoven what's not to like?

[Desmo]

Not spinning but streaming!

More Furtwangler with the Vienna Philharmonic - this time the Schubert Symphony No. 8 the "Unfinished" so only two movements. Sounding pretty good via FLAC files, not bad for an old mono recording from January 1950...

Files are loaded on a Synology NAS drive, and streaming over wifi to my Cambridge Audio Stream Magic 6, if anyone is interested.
