Last night's listening...
Beethoven Symphony No 2
..Karajan/BerPO, DGG
..Norrington/LCP, EMI
.....always interested to hear two so VERY different performances of the same piece back-to-back.
Ravel, Piano Concerto in g
d'Indy, Symphony on a French Mountain Air
..Munch/BSO, Henriot-Schwirzer -pf, LSC 2271-45 (Classic Records 45rpm reissue)(Delightfully different, excellent sound quality)
Country Dances: J.Playford's English Dancing Master
..Barlow/Broadside Band, Harmonia Mundi HM 1109
....A delightful collection of 17th Century English dance music, with sonics to delight one's ear! Recording engineer: the inimitable Jean-Francois Pontefract, who created so many of the Harmonia Mundi sonic marvels.
Bill Evans, Portrait in Jazz, Riverside 1162 -45 Analogue Productions 45rpm reissue. Oh yes! Excellent in this incarnation.
