The Art of the Arranger

[richardfinegold]

Remind me when you are going to perform this, BBM, and I will try to arrange my schedule .

[MrGongGong]

isn't it worrying in those few moments before the maestro kicks off?.

Fire up the Quattro ?
the Maestro was a bugger to start on a cold morning

There's a;lways someone!!

RFG I am hoping it will be next May

[Flosshilde]

Congratulations Bbm

Yes, indeed - a mammoth undertaking I would have thought.

After a (short) break perhaps you'll be tackling the 8th?

Too late for Michael Bentine to take part as the chorus I guess

Yes Ams, although I think Chandos's recording of it played by the BBCPO/Slatkin is much better. Also it has Respighi's arrangemement of his Passacaglia and Fugue

Thanks for the steer to this disc bbm: I've ordered a copy. I heard the Respighi live, under Slatkin (IIRC), at a prom a few years ago - absolutely stunning. And I get the Elgar C minor P&F (not that I really need another version) and several I don't know, inc. the Schoenberg

Great to hear! Have you bought Rattle's Brahms/Schoenberg [piano quartet?

I've got his CBSO one and I think I'll stick with that till I'm very, very rich and have a house big enough for all the CDs I've got already, plus all the ones I want! And then there's finding time to listen to them all

Though I'm within 5 yrs of retiring...but then Mrs LMP will probably say we need a smaller house
