Would it be free trade if a firm was told what they could do or say
by the Congress under threat of blackmail or punishment ?
Example please?

Classical Music for Aficionados
I would like to start a thread, similar to Orpheus’ jazz site, for lovers of classical music.
I will list some of my favorite recordings, CDs as well as LP’s. While good sound is not a prime requisite, it will be a consideration.
Classical music lovers please feel free to add to my lists.
Discussion of musical and recording issues will be welcome.
I’ll start with a list of CDs. Records to follow in a later post.
Berlioz: Symphonie Fantastique. Chesky — Royal Phil. Orch. Freccia, conductor.
Mahler: Des Knaben Wunderhorn. Vanguard Classics — Vienna Festival Orch. Prohaska, conductor.
Prokofiev: Scythian Suite et. al. DG — Chicago Symphony Abbado, conductor.
Brahms: Symphony #1. Chesky — London Symph. Orch. Horenstein, conductor.
Stravinsky: L’Histoire du Soldat. HDTT — Ars Nova. Mandell, conductor.
Rachmaninoff: Symphonic Dances. Analogue Productions. — Dallas Symph Orch. Johanos, cond.
Respighi: Roman Festivals et. al. Chesky — Royal Phil. Orch. Freccia, conductor.
All of the above happen to be great sounding recordings, but, as I said, sonics is not a prerequisite.

I remember this scene in an episode or 'POIROT', everyone is dressed to the nines in this grand house to listen to some 400 pound babe sing 'Lieder'. Once she starts, everyone's eyes glazed over almost instantly. Trying, as discreetly as possible, to check their watches. How much longer can she possibly go on? I LOL when I think of it. Nothing has changed. Cheers |
I’m not sure frogman. my putter is acting up . I do know he was slower that the Germans and the older I get the more I appreciate that in general . Jack Brymer always had a place in my heart just because .I read his book on plane once , fun , even if I didn’t get it all. Stolzman was good .Frost was here a lot with the SPCO , great when he wasn’t going crazy. My ALL time hero on the misery stick is Karl Leister with Karajan .He made zero mistakes and could change his tone about twice a second.When the players in the Berlin Phil are in awe ........But I have been told I have a German bias. |
frogman, I have long thought this the best Der Hiirt because her voice is the best for Schubert .Your clarinet is far better , but I stand on Ellly's voice is it . https://youtu.be/kYbomphH-lM?t=2 https://youtu.be/JygxOQK0rYg?t=1 |
