So I am officially opening my Christmas Season musically with two of the three requiste JS Bach cantatas for the day that is in it, BWV 61 & BWV 62 under the directorship of Harnoncourt from Vol. 16 of the pioneering cycle that both he and Leonhardt produced way back when....
I love the Bach cantatas too - have much of the Suzuki set.
Would you know where I can find a listing of cantatas appropriate for calendar/feast days?

Il Giardino Armonico and Giovanni Antonini yesterday in Mexico City. Electrifying performances of Tarquino Merula, Dario Castello, Domenico Sarri but most especially a stunning performance of Vivaldi´s La Follia. WOW!!!!!!

Berlioz: Symphonie Fantastique performed by Orchestre Lamoureux, Paris / Markevitch....
I can readily understand why this would become one’s favourite version. It is magnificent! It is really well played, the performance is very assertive and there is great tension throughout.

It´s above all superbly theatrical Fergus, something inherent to the composition.fergus wrote:Berlioz: Symphonie Fantastique performed by Orchestre Lamoureux, Paris / Markevitch....

The Giardino Armonico concert was yet another event. The playing was stupendous, refined, aristocratic, but vital and red blooded at the same time. Wished you guys had been there!

Re: What are you listening two?
And since we are talking of Il Giardino Armonico...the first release of their Haydn cycle expected to be finished in 2032!!!! (I wonder if I´ll be around by then). This first release includes 3 short symphonies, including La Passione, and Glück´s Don Juan Ballet. The playing is of course exquisite.
Re: What are you listening two?
That looks very exciting Pepe but 2032 - I may just wait for the reissue box set on the Brilliant label LOL!!!Jose Echenique wrote:
