Gli Orazi e I Curiazi by Domenico Curazi. Fairly unknown opera from the end of the 18th Century. Performed by the orchestra sinfonica e coro della RAI de Milano conducted by Carlo Maria Giulini. Recorded in Milan in April 1952. Sounds a little thin, as you might expect of such a historic performance, but very enjoyable nonetheless.

Excellent. If the opening piece doesn't melt your heart then you probably haven't got one.
Good for cleansing the musical palette.
Beautiful.
Yum.

An LP day yesterday ...
- ye gods, what a cover! - great performance and recording, though.
- very lively!
- I find Alkan quite difficult to appreciate, but I enjoyed this a fair bit.

While searching for a recording of Haydn violin concertos on TIDAL, I stumbled across this concerto by Haydn Wood ....
It's really quite good, well worth a listen.
But the real discovery was the concerto by Lionel Sainsbury. (Must be a relation!)
Coo - lovely stuff indeed.
Which led me on to this ...
Yum!!
and then a gorgeous solo violin piece on this ...
Very, very impressed by this grocerial chappie.

German's 1st symphony ...
-- excellent, and a very slammy audiophile percussion section!
-- I do like Leclair's music - a very pure sound. Simple, but not simplistic.
-- a lovely way to end the evening.
