Re: What are you listening to?
I own both this one, and a very serviceable set by Rostropovich and the London Phil, available at a real budget price... in addition to a number of single releases... as far as Tchaikovsky's Symphonies are concerned, I personally feel this is enough...fergus wrote:The Jansons is very good as well though!

Anyway....back to the music....
JSB – Two Cantatas for Sexagesima, BWV 18 & 181....
Sexagesima is the 2nd Sunday before Lent but, apparently, is no longer officially marked by the Church.
