Wow! - stirring stuff. There was me, air-conducting away like mad! :D
Bruckner 4 now, with Eugen Jochum at the controls ...
Excellent DGG recording.
Nice Julian - I have a lot of time for Jochum. Saw him live before he died, he had masterful control of the VPO.
Amazing if it had been any other way, really. :eyebrows:Quote:

A wonderful classical guitar recital on pristine vinyl. Music by Villa-Lobos, de Falla, Bach, Tarrega, Vivaldi ....
That's what happens when I try to concatenate the concept of seeing him live and the fact that he died. Gobbledegook!
Vivaldi - Concerto for 2 Mandolins 2CD
Adagio Mahler
Bach - The four Lute Suites . J. Williams
Film music by Sir Arthur Bliss:

Interesting to read (in the CD booklet) how in the filming of Things To Come Korda mangled HG Well's story, and Bliss's music, into something it wasn't.
Good playing, and the usual high sonic standards from Chandos.
On Phillips vinyl .

Observer Music ~ Great Symphonies Vol 1/Record 1 (Philips)
Dvorak Symphony No9 in E Minor OP. 95
LSO ~ Conductor Witold Rowicki
I can find no information about this series of three box sets from The Observer newspaper. Suffice it to say that Philips are responsible for the production so their usual high standards apply. I picked these up from our local recycling centre for 50p each and all of the records in the collection are in outstanding condition.
