Not quite sure where to post this, but here is as good a place as any:

Max Richter – 'From Sleep'

https://i.discogs.com/VSVhbETe-x4l8Ue0Y5rNYF37Cmd6dMIeyV5sZz3H9So/rs:fit/g:sm/q:40/h:300/w:300/czM6Ly9kaXNjb2dz/LWRhdGFiYXNlLWlt/YWdlcy9SLTc0NDUw/OTctMTUwNzk3MTQz/OC0yMDE2LmpwZWc.jpeg

Label: Deutsche Grammophon – 479 5257 GH, Deutsche Grammophon – 00289 479 5294 GH
Format: CD, Album, Digipak CD All Media, Limited Edition, Special Edition
Country: Europe
Released: Sep 4, 2015
Genre: Electronic, Classical
Style: Modern, Ambient

Picked up in a charity shop - not quite sure what I have bought: the full performance is 8 1/2 hours long. There are two CDs in this set; one marked -5257, the second marked as -5927.

It is suggested you play it and allow yourself to fall asleep, or play it as you are going to bed. Sounds as though it could be pretty soporific!

had a good listen to both CDs. I didn't fall asleep, although being quite knackered with the day's activity, I could have done. Actually I found it soothing and helpful to listen to whilst I was cooking! :D

Ok, this is probably a first for me.

When my stepdad passed, several boxes of assorted stuff went into my brother's loft. Now he is moving house so having a clearout. Hundreds of books, CDs, records, DVDs. Very little that i would give house room to (never heard of The Kaye Sisters, but a shitload of 7" singles).

All of it is going to the charity shop, but I kept back a few classical CDs on Deutsche Gramophone label. I randomly picked this one first - I actually recognise a lot of what's on it, so may keep it.

Steve - I would encourage you to listen to a few more of the classical CDs. It's a huge genre, and you may find some surprises and likes amongst them.

Like you I was never much interested in classical music, but that changed in my 30s, now it forms the largest part of my music collection.

Thanks Barry, I certainly will be keeping the rest of these CDs - I now have a grand total of eight! But the first two I played I found enjoyable in their quite different ways. And it helped that my set up seemed to like the genre, sounding somehow relaxing and dynamic! I wasn't expecting that...

But I do expect at some point that I will find I prefer some recordings to others, and could then build on those preferences. With your help of course :)

Well that Symphonie Fantastique was rather dramatic. The cat just sat there staring at the speakers with her ears twizzing round like a ship's radar, then left the room. This one seems a bit more cat-friendly:

I thought that one of my newly-acquired classical CDs might be just the thing for a Sunday morning, and I was right :) What is surprising me is just how much is sounding familiar - my brain must have been absorbing it all those years ago while i thought I was just tolerating it.

Rather than listening to the largely depressing news on the radio, I have been inspired to copy Steve's brilliant idea of playing the Beethoven Violin concerto.

But I'm going to play Anne-Sophie Mutter's performance with the New York Philharmonic, cond. Kurt Masur.

Excuse my ignorance Barry, but is the one you are playing a different piece of music to mine, or the same but from a different composer/orchestra? These are the kind of things that confuse me.

Barry
09-07-2023, 07:37
It is the same composition: Beethoven's Violin Concerto in D-major, Opus 61. However in your case the violinist is Shlomo Mintz and the Orchestra is the Philharmonia Orchestra conducted by Giuseppi Sinopoli.

Same bit of music, but different soloist and different 'band'. :)

struth

ludwig van only did one violin concerto interestingly so same music played by different soloist and conductor/orchestra by looks of it

I followed it with this, but had to eject it pretty quickly (Anita still in bed) :eek: I didn't know it would be the opening of 2001: A Space Odyssey :doh: too much drama for 8am...

Looks interesting - it's the sort of thing I like, but tend to play only one side or another.

Gregorian chant is another genre I find relaxing to listen too, but one side of an LP is enough.
