Yes, that too - probably should have started a separate thread! I read that on debut the audience would not permit the Scherzo until the 2nd movement had been repeated.Originally Posted by MartinT
Beim Schlafengehen is very thoughtful. The human voice can, as you mentioned, carry such feeling.

A little Sunday Wagner on vinyl - this came from the outdoor market and is in nice shape - wonderful barking brass interjections and Siegfried's rhythmic hammer blows on the anvil are wonderful - toying with the idea of looking for a complete Ring on LP - may be a dear do, mind...

I didn't used to like Nielsen's music - then a few months ago I heard a radio broadcast of his Helios overture - and something went 'click' at the back of my small brain.
It sounds abfab to me now!!

It's funny how that happens sometimes - I remember that I was interested in Nielsen and looking for a set of the symphonies, but I somehow got distracted. Will check some out now you've reminded me.I didn't used to like Nielsen's music - then a few months ago I heard a radio broadcast of his Helios overture - and something went 'click' at the back of my small brain.

I strongly recommend the set I showed - I had the later set by Blomstedt and it sounds quite lacklustre in comparison - which may be part of the reason for my previous ambivalence to Nielsen.

Fantastic.
