Whats on your turntable tonight?

Tried the Cowboy Junkies', Trinity Revisited on vinyl yet? A fantastic record! Sounds just like Margo is in the room signing and you can hear all of the reverberation of the Trinity Church, rich and organic. Wonderful!

Todd Rundgren: RUNT..........one of my all time favorites.

After four nights of packing and repacking boxes to send off and not getting any listening in, I have a day of respite and it has been a good day so far...

Tchaikovsky Sextet 'Souvenir de Florence', Melodiya (Russian label)
Mozart Complete Masonic Music, Edinburgh Festival Chorus & LSO (London, Japanese pressing by King)
Contemporary Music for the Viola (music by Shebalin, Svetlanov, Kryukov, Kirkor played by Mikhail Tolpygo), Melodiya

on now is...
Modern Jazz Quartet Concert in Tokyo, Volume 1

next up is one of my favorite pieces, the Hebraic Suite for Viola and Orchestra by Ernest Bloch, but a version I have just picked up and never heard before; one played by Andras von Toszeghi and the BBC Northen Symphony Orchestra.

Pergolesi's Stabat Mater performed by the Czech Philharmonic Chorus. Dark, emotional and beautiful. The record is old, worn, and noisy and some spots are quite noisy but the music shines through. Goose bumps and tears guaranteed.

Thanks for prompting me to pull out the Bloch Hebraic Suite and the Pergolesi Stabat Mater, T_Bone and Nick_sr. I haven't listened to these pieces for many years, and they are both lovely. I'll enjoy them later today.
