My first venture into the symphonic music of Onslow....

I don't have any recordings of his music.

Earlier today I was inspired by Simon to listen to recordings of Purcell's music:
Henry Purcell
Dido and Aenas Opera in three acts (Highlights)
Emily Van Evira (Dido), Ben Parry (Aenas), Haden Andrews (Sorceress)
Taverner Choir and Players
Andrew Parrott conducting.
This is very enjoyable and is very easy to listen to.

Ludwig van Beethoven
Piano Sonata No. 1 in F minor
Piano Sonata No. 2 in A major
Artur Schnabel piano
Gorgeous sensitive playing on these beautifully restored recorded performances from 1934.

I listened to Emma Kirkby in the same repertoire. I'm really chuffed that I inspired you to listen to Purcell. Facebook is good for something!

In a Beethoven mood, Symphonies 6, 8 and 4 are on deck. Cluytens/Berlin to start... may mix in some others later.
