and so will I!

Well, I never! Dane and Mahler, who would ever have believed it? The Klemperer is a very fine recording but I prefer the Solti/LSO to any other Resurrection. Enjoy!

Speaking of Scriabin, this is a lovely set:

However Kubelik's BRSO cycle is, for me, a masterpiece of interpretation
Well it is Rafael Kubelik!

Hello Matt. I find Scriabin an intriguing composer with perhaps not enough recordings available given his reputation. I got this disc at a good price also because I am always eager to hear Boulez's take on works.

Keep posting Matt!
