Here's mine:

Mingus at the Bohemia.

For me, this week it has definitely been Rebecca Clarke’s Piano Trio by the Lincoln Trio on a marvellous Hi-Res download from Qobuz.

Earlier in the week I listened to her violin sonata (I’ve got the Naxos CD) and a CD of her songs. It really hit me how much her music is so very much my cup of tea, totally floats my boat if you’ll excuse the mixed metaphors. So I got onto looking for some more stuff and came across this. It is every bit as good as her v sonata, and that’s saying something! The other two works are great - a smashing purchase.

Multiple plays here for Rachel Podger and Brecon Baroque's Art of Fugue.

Schubert Winterreise, with DFD and Gerald Moore. I'm going to a recital soon with Alice Coote and Julius Drake.

Missed this Richard. Tell me about it. I feel another Bach/Podger Christmas coming on and there seems to be an aura around Brecon Baroque as well.

Beethoven Piano Concertos 1 and 3 Leon Fleisher/Cleveland Orchestra\Szell

[Nick Armstrong]

Selected downloaded tracks from from the new Tenebrae recording - specifically Stanford's Bluebird, and the Three Shakespeare Songs by Vaughan Williams. Sung better than I've ever heard them.

Beethoven Piano Concertos 1 and 3 Leon Fleisher/Cleveland Orchestra\Szell

A great set of Beethoven piano concertos, this is. Have you heard the wonderful triple concerto with the same forces, but soloists being Istomin/Stern/rose? That's pretty fine, too.... In fact, I might give it a spin during lunch....

Schubert's piano sonatas, played by Michel d'Alberto. Music to calm the savage breast. I was thinking that the Schubert is what I choose to chime in with a more reflective mood, Mozart to brighten things up (I snapped up two CDs on Amazon market place a couple of years ago 'for old time's sake - played by Peter Katin. And ol' Pete does it for me).

That looks rather good, Cali! I might just have a peruse!

My favourite is the Peter Racine Fricker cd I bought this week and Wagner orchestral music from Chicago SO, Daniel Barenboim. This has stupendous playing from their tuba player, here, in Die Meistersinger Overture.

Thank you Richard. I have had a gleek at youtube and am impressed as usual by RP's enthusiasm. Santa - Yes!

My memory of this will always be coupled with the News From America.
