Whats on your turntable tonight?

Played hooky again tonight and went to the the Curtis Institute's faculty concert instead: Arnold Steinhardt (first violin of the Guarneri String Quartet) and Anna Polonsky, piano, playing Beethoven, Janacek and R.Strauss. Outstanding!

Rushton, Live music... probably the single sound that beats a great turntable, agreed?! Cheers!

R_f_sayles, yep! The audio system is for the dry spells. Right now we are in the height of the classical music live performance season: orchestra concerts on Saturdays and Curtis Institute of Music recitals on weeknights whenever the students and my schedule coincide! For us, it just doesn't get any better that sitting in a wonderful chamber music venue 15' from world class performers; or sitting in the concert hall in 1st Tier Box seats at the same height as the recording mikes with 105 (+/-) of the best orchestral players in the world arrayed in front of you.

Amen to that!

I sure agree to the above! My full set of subscription tickets for this seasons Haddonfield Symphony arrived by mail today. Center section, row F. October 29th is opening night with Rossen Milanov conducting Sibelius' Symphony No. 7 and Beethoven's Symphony No. 7. Nothing like live music to calibrate one's ears!
