What Classical Music Are You listening to Now? III

[Bryn]

Bryan, don't do the "half-empty cup" on this!!

Celebrate it! (MrGG would! )

I just wish they had sacrificed a little video quality to offer LPCM audio, rather than Lossy AC-3.

Tavener choral music, St John's College choir/Robinson. Wonderful performances of highly emotional music and an astonishingly vivid Naxos recording that will test the dynamic capacity of any sound system.

understood ....

[Richard Barrett]

Sorry to be so boring and predictable: Andris Nelsons' Bruckner symphonies, yet again.

[jayne lee wilson]

Sorry to be so boring and predictable...... Volkmar Andreae and Mario Venzago in Bruckner Symphonies again.....(all kinds of 2 and all kinds of 3)....

But from tonight I'll be focussing in on the Beethoven Cello Sonatas....(Altstaedt/Lonquich, Graf 1826/Guadagnini 1749, Alpha)..... I only truly got to know the Violin Sonatas this year, hoping these will be similarly revelatory after the initial shocking encounter a few days back.........

An old CD on HMV Classics: Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata, a collection which also features the Appassionata & Pathetique Sonatas and op. 49 no. 2. Played by Barenboim.

I contemplated choosing Bach's Easter Oratorio, thinking that, if we were going to be celebrating Christmas at Easter, I'd better celebrate Easter now, but I think it will be (at least part 1 of) the Christmas Oratorio after all.

...are the creme eggs out yet?

Hely-Hutchinson will be on shortly!

Just now I anticipated New Year and got as far as Cantatas 4-6 of Christmas Oratorio (Jacobs), which I don't usually reach. Very pleasing background to some gravy making in an unusually peaceful kitchen.

[Joseph K]

Yes - I've also put part 1 of the Christmas Oratorio on.

Absolutely wallowing in postprandial submergence into La Monte Young/Marian Zazeela's The Well-Tuned Piano in The Magenta Lights. Cheating again by using surround synthesis. It's quite effective with such music from such an instrument.

Another gorgeous off-the-beaten Beethoven Chamber Set... I never need any encouragement to hear the lovely, genial Septet again....
All makes the night a little shorter...brings the Hot Chocolate a little closer...
