I post on this thread, simply because that is what I am playing. It is just for the record; I don't expect you to like my choices, just as I may not like yours.

That's fine, Barry. What makes you think I believe otherwise?
I was just expressing my own opinion.
As I said in my previous post -- "Isn't it wonderful how we all have different tastes. :)"
And I meant it, too!

The Ginastera Piano Concerto is interesting, Jerry. I have a different recording, but can't remember who by at the moment. I'm in the garden getting roasted...
I'm hiding indoors in the cool - and listening to the Ginastera Harp Concerto again.
It's rather good, in a brassy rhythmic effervescent South American way!
Spinning at the moment, chez Jerry --->

On vinyl. :wowzer:
1st time I've listened to an LP in several months, my interest re-kindled by a visit to Jake lordmortlock where I helped him set up his lovely new VPI tt. :thumbsup:
I'm listening thru the phonostage of my vintage Marantz quadraphonic receiver, thence to my Grado 325i headphones.
And very good it sounds as well. I do like Levine's Brahms. :)
Schubert Trout Quintet by the Hungarian Quartet.
Good bass playing which sounds great on the phones. Must listen of the main rig tomorrow. Just doing sort of background listening at the mo. Difficult though, the damn music keep grabbing my attention.
