I have to confess that I do struggle with this piece, fair play to Darren on the splendid job he did on it in 2012. Unfortunately, I cannot locate Darren's thread, I hope it wasn't deleted. I will preserve with von Karajan's reading of this work.

Love to listen to Gesualdo and this recording is especially apt for the day that's in it.
Really lovely record.

Thanks Fergus, much appreciated, I searched on Quixote and didn't find it.

Yes, Mark, beautiful music indeed. Who is performing on that version please? I only have one version of this work (see below) and I am attracted to the fact that yours is on the Archiv Produktion label as a possible alternative version for me.
